Culture, Faith and Politics with Pat Kahnke

Six years ago, I made my first YouTube video warning about Donald Trump’s dangerous impact—not just on our nation, but on the souls of those who support him. This week’s primetime speech confirmed what many of us have long seen: Trump is unraveling, and his movement is more toxic than ever.   In this episode, I break down the central truth his followers still refuse to face—and why truth itself is on the line for Christians in America. I share my pastoral concern, rooted in Scripture, about what happens when the people of God embrace lies in the name of Jesus.

Pat offers a response and some encouragement after a really difficult weekend around the world.

The news was heavy last week with the Brown University shooting, the Bondi Beach terror attack, and the deaths of Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner. Pat Kahnke and Producer Ken Napzok are here to take a look at the news and remember influential actor, director, and political activist Rob Reiner. From YouTube Live 12/16/2025.

The New York Times just dropped a bombshell story: the Trump family’s disturbing relationship with Andrew and Tristan Tate—two of the most proudly abusive, misogynistic figures online. This episode breaks down what the article reveals, why it matters for Christians and conservatives, and why ignoring it only deepens the moral decay in American politics. 

In this honest and theologically grounded conversation, Pat Kahnke and global Christian leader Tihomir Kukolja unpack the biblical warning in Romans 2:24 — “God’s name is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you.” Together, they confront the deep harm being done to the Christian witness by Donald Trump and the current Christian nationalist movement in America.
