Truth Over Tribe: Christian Takes on Culture, News & Politics

Do Politics Corrupt Your Faith? with Peter Wehner

Mar 12, 2025

Is it possible to change Washington, D.C. without it changing you? Today’s guest, Peter Wehner, thinks so. But he’s also a bit of an anomaly: a serious Christian who felt he never had to compromise his faith while serving in the Reagan and both Bush administrations. How did his faith and career merge? Did he ever have to hold back on what he believed in order to keep his role as an advisor? How did he justify the decisions around the wars going on at the time? Hear Peter and Keith discuss how serving in the highest levels of politics can (and can’t!) corrupt your faith. And what kinds of pressures do all Christians face to conform? Listen now!
