Politics in the Pews
The Christian Post
7 episodes
9 months ago
2024 is being called the biggest election year in history — and with good reason. Seven of the world’s ten most populous countries, including the United States, will hold national elections this year. As more people than ever before are expected to vote in 2024, what exactly does it mean to be a “Christian voter” in America today? Is it merely a Christian who votes? Or something far more nuanced? That’s the question at the forefront of The Christian Post podcast series and upcoming live event, "Politics In The Pews." Through conversations with a variety of Evangelical voices from across the political spectrum, "Politics In The Pews" looks at the history and influence of Evangelicalism in American politics, where churches and Christian leaders stand on the presumed Republican nominee and former president Donald Trump, and how “Christian nationalism” could sway independent voters. Topics will cover the rise and fall of the “Religious Right,” the “Trump factor,” Christian nationalism, the pros and cons of church ballot collection efforts, how Hispanic Evangelical leaders are engaging their congregations, and a panel of leading Christian voices on the state of religious liberty in America in 2024.

What happens when “one nation under God” becomes “one God over a nation?”

That’s essentially the question at the heart of the controversy surrounding Christian nationalism. But other questions remain: what is it, what isn’t it, is it a boogeyman being used to dismiss faith voters — and who, exactly, stands to benefit from such a movement?

Does Christian nationalism define everyday American Christians in the pews, or is there some other agenda at work? That’s the subject of this episode of “Politics in the Pews.”

Politics in the Pews
Kamala, Waheguru, and Other False Gods: The Identity Campaign of 2024

LIVE EVENT: What does it mean to be an Evangelical voter in 2024? The Christian Post presents Politics In The Pews, a call for Christians from across all denominations and political affiliations to come together on key issues facing the Church ahead of what many believe will be the most significant election of our lifetimes. For more information, visit politicsinthepews.com


Already a presidential election cycle unlike any other, the 2024 campaign took yet another turn after President Joseph Biden relented to mounting Democratic pressure to end his bid for reelection and threw his support behind Vice President Kamala Harris.


The development came just days after the Republican National Convention kicked off with a controversial prayer naming a Sikh deity as the “one true God,” raising questions about the waning influence of Christianity in the GOP and about what exactly the two current candidates for president actually believe when it comes to their personal faith.


Episode three of The Christian Post’s “Politics in the Pews” podcast examines the role of religious syncretism in the 2024 White House race and how Christians can work with other faith groups toward shared objectives.

Days before Donald Trump would officially become the Republican nominee for president of the United States, a would-be assassin's bullet grazed his right ear in a moment that transformed the 2024 race for the White House - and, for at least some, Trump's own eternal destiny.
