In this episode Bonnie sits down and has a compelling conversation with Carolyn Baker PhD mostly about her newest book, Confronting Christofascism: Healing the Evangelical Wound. It is no secret that since 2016 the United States has felt as though it is on its last legs as a democracy. Carolyn shares with us many of her perspectives on why that is the case from her book.

This conversation includes many of the things we are not supposed to talk about at the dinner table: religion and politics. Specifically the marrying of fascism and a large portion of American Christianity. Carolyn’s revolutionary mindset is on full display when she expands on a terms like religious terrorism and her books namesake, Christofascism.
