Tasha Heath discusses the perception of Christians by non-Christians and the importance of kindness over political engagement.
Do non-Christians see Jesus, or politics, when they look at us? Tasha Heath doesn’t identify as a Christian but has been around the church her whole life. She also worked inside party politics and saw enough behind-the-scenes behavior to step back. From the outside, her read is simple: basic kindness and steady presence change more than ballots and online fights ever will. Craig and Tasha ask the hard question: how do non-Christians perceive Christians, and is our politics-first posture helping or hurting the gospel? They dig into hypocrisy, homelessness, prisons, and why the church must find a way to look like Jesus, not the state. They dig into: Optics of church vs. state and public witness. From activism to opting out & local care. Teens, algorithms, and outrage-discipleship. Prisons, plant “crimes,” and decriminalization. Early church imagination vs. modern nationalism. 📖For Full Show Notes: https://www.thebadroman.com/show-notes/episode-150 💕 Support the Project 💕If this convo with Tasha Heath showed how church can mirror the political system—and why kindness matters.
