EP 14.536 | In this episode of Cross Talk, Charles and Daniel discuss James Talarico, a politician who presents himself as a Christian but makes theologically questionable claims. They critique statements like "God is pro-neighbor" and "God is non-binary," contrasting them with biblical teaching. The hosts emphasize the importance of interpreting Scripture in its full context rather than selectively, warning listeners about politicians who use religious language to advance political agendas.
