The Cult of Christianity

By: John Verner
  • Summary

  • Hi there, friend. My name is John Verner. I used to be a part of the largest cult in the United States. After studying the Bible, Christian history, and ministry, I set my sights on confronting the problematic nature of white evangelicalism in the United States. In 2019, I published my first book as a first step in addressing the subtle issues of this complex system. This podcast will continue that work under the same title.

    John hosts an engaging dialogue with Darren Slade, a history and comparative religion professor, President of the Global Center for Religious Research (GCRR.org), and Director of the North American Committee on Religious Trauma Research (NACRTR). In this episode, they tackle the complexities of financial incentives in academia, explore the contrasting approaches of critical and confessional scholars, and briefly engage in a spirited debate over whether "woke-ism" constitutes a cult (it does not!)
