I had a great time chatting with community organizer Luke Allen for @churchandmain. In this clip he talks about how rich liberals make Trump voters into scapegoats.

The Southern Baptist Convention is easily the largest denomination in the United States.
12.9 million members.
But they've lost 3M+ since 2006, and there's no reason to think that will stop in the near future.
That just don't dominate the Bible Belt like they used to.

Sociologist Jesse Smith explains how some in the field got Trump voters so wrong.
The killing of Brian Thompson was shocking not just for its brazenness, but for how people looked at the killer.
@denminn reflects on the killing and its reaction. churchandmain.org/episode/br…
I wrote an article on the murder of Brian Thompson, that can also be listened to as a podcast. I based it on the Anglican prayer given after someone dies where you say that someone is a sinner of Christ's redeeming.
