ACERCA DE ESTE EPISODIO
This is part two of our discussion about Charles Mathewes’ Washington Post article, “White Christianity is in big trouble. And it’s its own biggest threat.” Check out part one here. In this episode we consider gun control, immigration, the death penalty, and treatment of the poor in an effort to understand and respond to evangelicalism’s ongoing public relations problem. Are “white evangelicals” as Mathewes puts it “a breathtakingly cruel bunch?”
