In this thought-provoking episode of Thinking Out Loud, Cameron and Nathan explore the unsettling rise of religious extremism in North America—particularly among evangelicals—and the tragic case of Vance Luther Bolter. They unpack how Christian language and imagery can be dangerously distorted to serve political or personal ideologies, drawing a sharp contrast between authentic discipleship and the misuse of faith as a tool for violence. With references to scripture, personal stories, and current events, this conversation challenges believers to reflect on political idolatry, dehumanizing rhetoric, and the moral consequences of unchecked speech. If you're a Christian hungry for deep theological insight and honest engagement with today’s most pressing cultural issues, this episode will speak directly to you.
