If you’ve noticed a shift in Evangelicalism over the past five years you’re not alone. Aaron Renn, host of the Aaron Renn Show, joins us to talk about his book Life in the Negative World: Confronting Challenges in an Anti-Christian Culture. We talk about the why figures like Jordan Peterson and Jocko Willink draw the attention of many Christian young men struggling to make sense of their lives.
We also discuss the shift from “neutral world” in which Christianity serves as one religious option among many to the more hostile “negative world” as well as ways this shift fractured and split the modern conservative Evangelical movement. Finally, we talk about ways Evangelicals can not only adapt to negative world, but also take advantage of new opportunities while navigating the difficult waters of modern politics.
