Ralph Reed

Ralph Reed, a key player in mobilizing faith-based voters, and Mark Tooley, an advocate for biblical Christianity's role in democracy, discuss the intricate ties between Christianity and American politics. They engage in lively debates on the historical impact of the Great Awakenings, the decline of mainline denominations, and the rise of non-denominational churches. The conversation touches on the shifting identification of evangelicals, the need for civic engagement, and the challenges of Christian nationalism in today's polarized landscape.

Joined by Craig Whitlock, a Washington Post investigative journalist known for his insights on the Afghan war, Katty Kay, a prominent TV journalist and author, and Ralph Reed, a Republican strategist, they dive deep into the chaotic aftermath of the U.S. evacuation from Afghanistan. The discussion humorously critiques political mismanagement over the decades, highlights the rise of conservative comedy, and examines the complex intertwining of faith and politics in today’s landscape. With sharp wit, they explore America's freedoms while recognizing its flaws.
