The Russell Moore Show - Tim Alberta Worries Politics Is Poisoning the Church

The following episode was recorded on May 13, 2022. “Having grown up just down the road, the son of the senior pastor at another church in town, I’ve spent my life watching evangelicalism morph from a spiritual disposition into a political identity,” Tim Alberta recently wrote at The Atlantic. “It’s heartbreaking.” On this episode of The Russell Moore Show, Alberta and Moore discuss the shift in evangelical life that has taken place over the past several years. They share honest, insightful stories about the grief of unwillingly losing relationships over political differences—stories that many listeners may find familiar. They talk about changes in politics, namely the culture of high-energy political passion we see today, and what it looks like for Christians to live as people of truth in a chaotic age. 00:00 Opening 03:06 Story Behind the Article 09:23 Church Growth and Political Parallels 20:46 Institutional Decline 27:00 Fear of Being Secularized Out of Existence 33:49 End of Roe v.
