Well, here we are again. The very same arguments that were rolled out by MAGA Christian leaders to justify supporting Donald Trump in 2016 and 2020 are back again in 2024. A new article in the Christian Post says America\u2019s survival depends on Christians voting for Trump. Why do these fear tactics still work? Then, it\u2019s true that all politicians lie, but PolitiFacts says Trump is a league of his own. And scientists explain why negative polarization in our politics may have evolutionary origins.

Then Skye interviews pastor and author, Brian Zahnd, about his new book, \u201cThe Wood Between the Worlds: A Poetic Theology of the Cross.\u201d He draws from art, literature, movies, and music to help us see the many facets of what Jesus really accomplished on that old rugged cross. Also this week, an early church father liked big couches and he cannot lie.
