Send us a text!What if the icons of conservative thought weren't who we believed them to be? This episode challenges preconceived notions as we unravel the complex tapestry of conservative politics and Christian nationalism. We start by examining why we did not endorse the Antioch Declaration, with a spotlight on William F. Buckley Jr.'s contentious journey through the American right. From his influential founding of the National Review to his polarizing stance on Israel, Buckley's legacy is dissected to reveal the nuanced layers of his impact on the conservative movement.Our conversation then shifts to the internal tug-of-war within conservative circles, featuring figures like Rod Dreher and Doug Wilson. We delve into the strategies and ideological shifts that are reshaping the landscape, drawing intriguing parallels to the left's approach of embracing extremes to shift societal discourse. Recent controversies surrounding "White Boy Summer," "Revoice for Nazis," and more  are addressed head-on, scrutinizing how antisemitism is being redefined within Christian communities and the implications of these narratives for the future of the movement.Finally, we explore the complexities of public controversies and their impact on church communities and leadership. With a pastoral lens, we investigate the heated disputes involving Joel, Tobias, and the Antioch Declaration, emphasizing the necessity of clear communication and accountability. This episode is a call to foster transparency and truth-seeking, advocating for thoughtful dialogues that bridge the gap between differing perspectives in a rapidly evolving political and religious landscape.We hope this episode answers these three key questions:1. Why didn't we sign the Antioch Declaration?2. What vision for Christian Nationalism do we support?3. What do we hope happens from here?Watch the video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v3EzfG6FLaUDid you know supporters of the show get ad-free video and audio episodes delivered early and access to our patron exclusive After Hours?https://www.patreon.com/thekingshallSupport the show:https://www.patreon.com/thekingshall
