    Pete Wehner: Navigating Political Exile, Faith, and Identity Mar 06, 2025
    Show notes

    Everyone wants love and community in a fractured world. What happens when they are lost?

    Host Curtis Chang and Pete Wehner, a columnist for The Atlantic and former White House staffer, explore the deep sense of political, cultural, and spiritual exile felt by many Americans. Reflecting on Pete's journey from shaping policy during 9/11 to breaking from the Republican Party over Donald Trump, they discuss the challenges of shifting identities while staying true to one's convictions. Drawing from the Psalms, cognitive psychology, and Christian history, they offer a vision for engaging culture and finding new purpose amid political disillusionment and feelings of living in exile, even in the place you call home.

    This episode revisits a past conversation to examine cognitive dissonance and the pursuit of truth in times of uncertainty.

    Jonathan Rauch: An Atheist Rethinks Secular & Christian America Feb 27, 2025
    Show notes

    What is the hidden influence of Christianity in American society—and what happens if it disappears?

    Host Curtis Chang sits down with Jonathan Rauch, senior fellow at the Brookings Institute and author of Cross Purposes: Christianity's Broken Bargain with Democracy, to explore how Judeo-Christian values have shaped democracy and what their decline means for our political and social landscape. They discuss the rise of fear within the evangelical church, political polarization, and make the case for Christian virtues as a stabilizing force at the heart of the American republic. Whether you're a believer or a skeptic, it's important to understand why Christianity's influence extends far beyond the church—and why its disappearance could reshape the future of democracy.
