Is Extremism More Common on the Far-Left or Far-Right? with Elizabeth Neumann

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

In recent years, there’s been a definitive uptick in tribalism, extremism, and extremist violence. But is the same true inside the church itself? Former counterterrorism official, Elizabeth Neumann, is back on the pod today to provide a fascinating look into the process of radicalization that has crept into evangelicalism. She starts by discussing “Trump loyalty tests” (a story worth the listen in and of itself!) and how Trump’s demeanor and rhetoric may have influenced violence and extremism in Christian circles. She explains extremism and walks through the step-by-step process of radicalization. She details why she believes that far-right extremism is far more common than extremism on the far-left. Plus, how close is the average evangelical to extremism? How can we love someone who’s trending toward radicalism and violence? Listen now!
