688: The MAGA Contradiction & Educational Injustice with Terence Lester

Sep 24, 2025 · 1h 25m

The memorial service for Charlie Kirk revealed a deep contradiction with the MAGA movement. Kirk's widow was cheered when she forgave his assassin and modeled Jesus' command to love your enemies. But the crowd also cheered when Stephen Miller and President Trump dehumanized their opponents and expressed hatred for their enemies. Esau McCaulley joins Phil and Skye to discuss the tension between Christian love and pagan power. Also this week, Dr. Terence Lester tells his inspiring story in his new book, "From Dropout to Doctorate," and how he's working both spiritually and systemically to reform education.
