Ryan Burge: Distrust & Denominations
Homebrewed Christianity Podcast with Tripp Fuller
Hey Theology Nerds,
In this episode, I am joined by political scientist Ryan Burge for an engaging conversation about his fascinating data on religious decline and the rise of the ‘Nones’ and non-denominational Christianity. We discuss the implications of denominational decline, growing distrust in institutional religion, and the explosive growth of non-denominational churches. This episode features in-depth analysis, intriguing graphs, lively discussions, and insights from prominent social philosophers.
