As Trump & Pete Hegseth mansplain violence and intolerance to our military’s top brass, Tim & April confront the devastating reality of America’s gun violence epidemic, most recently on display with the shooting at a Mormon church in Michigan. This isn’t just about the human toll of mass shootings, there is also the political opportunism and selective outrage that follows in their wake, particularly from Christian nationalists.
Christian nationalists weaponize tragedy while gun reform remains stalled despite overwhelming evidence that solutions exist. But gun reform, at this point, is so far off the table as to be laughable. The broader crisis of violence, power, and bad faith politics is shaping the nation today. And it starts at the very top.
As part of The New Evangelical’s network, The Tim and April Show explores faith, politics, and culture from a Christian worldview rooted in love, justice, and inclusivity. The New Evangelicals is a digital-first 501(c)(3) nonprofit committed to creating a better path forward at the intersection of faith, politics, and culture. Through educational resources and inclusive community spaces, we empower people to reject Christian Nationalism and boldly advocate for their neighbors while holding onto a faith rooted in the way of Jesus: with love, justice, and compassion for all.
