Episode 19- Global Nationalism and the New Empires (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Across the world, questions of national identity, borders, culture, and belonging are once again shaping political movements. But why now? And what happens when identity becomes closely tied to fear and the pursuit of power? In this episode, we explore the resurgence of nationalism through the lens of empire, examining how uncertainty can strengthen identity, how fear can reinforce political systems, and why the Kingdom of God offers a fundamentally different understanding of belonging. Rather t
Episode 18: Revolution to Oligarchy (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Power, Wealth,and the Global Pattern Political revolutions often promise freedom, equality, and a new beginning. Yet history repeatedly shows that power has a way of concentrating again- sometimes in monarchs, sometimes in governments, and increasingly in economic and financial elites. In this episode, we explore how modern oligarchies emerge, why wealth and influence have become defining features of today's global order, and how economic systems can reinforce patterns of empire. Rather than foc
Episode 17- Empire in the East: Faith, Power, and the Russian Story (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Empire does not take only one form- it adapts to history, culture, and identity. In this episode, we turn to the Russian Federation and explore how faith, power, and national story have become intertwined in a different- but familiar- way. From the vision of a "Third Rome" to the rise and fall of the Soviet Union, and into the present day, we trace how systems of control, identity, and meaning continue to take shape. What happens when faith returns to public life- not apart from power, but along
Episode 16- Holy Land or Political Idol? Faith, Power, and the Question of Israel (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Few places carry the weight of history, faith, and identity like Israel. But when modern political realities are given theological meaning, the question becomes more complex: are we understanding the story- or elevating it beyond what it was meant to carry? In this episode, we begin widening the lens beyond a single nation, exploring how faith and power can become intertwined. Looking at the theology often used to interpret Israel today, we ask how the New Testament reframes the promises of the
Episode 15- Hope in an Unraveling Nation: The Kingdom that Cannot Be Shaken (opens the original)
Read excerpt
As the world around us feels increasingly uncertain, the question becomes unavoidable: what actually holds? In this episode, we bring together everything we've explored- empire, identity,and formation- and turn toward something deeper. If so much of what we rely on can be shaken, where does real stability come from? The Gospel does not point us back to what once felt secure. it points us to a Kingdom that cannot be shaken- one built on power, control, or outcomes, but on the faithfulness of God.
