In this episode of Ruining Dinner, Diana and Tripp discuss the rising influence of Christian nationalism, highlighting an interview with Pastor Joel Webbon, who advocates for a return to patriarchy and speaks against democracy. The conversation then expands to the cultural antagonism present in America and the importance of truth, kindness, and listening in political discourse. The conversation then reflects on the role of democracy in managing differences and the theological and ethical implications of truth and kindness in fostering a more inclusive and understanding society.

This Episode is Sponsored by Pittsburgh Theological Seminary

This episode is sponsored by Pittsburgh Theological Seminary. The assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump underscores the ever-present threat of political violence in the United States. In such a time as this, the Christian work of peacemaking in our communities is essential.

So, what are we to do? The ways of the world are violence, retribution, dehumanization, political and religious extremism, and living in echo chambers. Instead, we can choose to love radically and work courageously for authentic and positive peace.

Join us in person or online Sept. 22-24 at the Henderson Leadership Conference Faithful Resistance: Choosing Christ Over Empire, led by Dr. Diana Butler Bass and the Rev. Dr. Leah D. Schade, for timely, inspiring lectures and workshops full of strategies for ministry and laypeople amid political and theological divisions.
