Will Trump’s Assassination Attempt Finally Wake Us Up?

Truth Over Tribe: Christian Takes on Culture, News & Politics

On July 13, 2024, former President Donald Trump was almost assassinated at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. While it’s not our place to weigh in on many aspects of this horrific attack, we do want to focus on the church: How should Christians respond? On today’s episode, Keith and Patrick issue a call for Christians to think carefully and clearly, put truth over tribe, and realize that our response can have the power to shape the future of the country. They examine how our political climate has led to this point, explaining how our recent political rhetoric has reveled in catastrophizing and how this has not been the norm of civil discourse over the past several decades. They break down how it’s possible to be so violently divided from the “other side” and how political violence, in general, is increasing in both parties. They end by providing practical steps that Christians should take in this moment. Will this assassination attempt be an inflection point? Will the tribalized church finally wake up? Listen now!
