For anyone who is paying attention, it is not hard to get the sense that the European right is different from the North American right, especially the American right. I invited on to help us get a better understanding of the dynamics of the European Right, its history and development, the issues at play, and the role that the Christian faith plays in right wing politics in Europe today. I think you will enjoy this discussion.Note: there are two spots in which there was an interruption in the internet. They were short and hopefully will not be too much of a distraction.You can find Eugyppius’ work on Substack at:He also posts on Twitter at: https://x.com/eugyppius1Bumper music: Gregorian Chant Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/ Music promoted by https://www.chosic.com/free-music/all/ This is a public episode.

C. Jay Engel, Big Tuna/Riley S, The Black Horse, and William M. Briggs discuss the evolving American identity, the intersection of Christianity and politics, and the relationship between evangelicals and political influences. They explore the challenges of establishing a unified American identity amidst diversity and division, redefining American identity to accommodate different groups, and the historical journey of American Christians seeking religious freedom.

Ron Dodson, Josh Abbotoy, Nate Fischer, and The Black Horse discuss the phenomenon of Christian leadership aligning with the progressive regime. They explore evolving beliefs post-COVID, challenges faced by evangelical institutions, power dynamics in protection, and obedience, the intersection of American Christianity and politics, emergence of a new Christian political consciousness, financial decision-making in religious institutions, and leadership approaches in religious organizations.

The political and social landscape is changing. Churches and their leaders are adapting, but not in the ways you might expect. Let's try to understand the phenomenon of the "regimevangelical."Written version: https://www.seekingthehiddenthing.com/p/understanding-the-regimevangelicalBumper Music: Stream Countdown 10s by Alexander Nakarada | https://www.serpentsoundstudios.com Music promoted by https://www.chosic.com/free-music/all/ Creative Commons CC BY 4.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ This is a public episode.
