This was particularly perplexing to many outside (and within) evangelical circles, because as leaders of America’s “Moral Majority” for almost four decades, prior to Trump’s campaign, evangelicals had insisted that only candidates who set a high standard for personal integrity and civic decency, were qualified to serve as president.

Starting from The Fellowship Foundation founded in the USA in the 1930s and looking at similar and interconnected developments in various countries from South America, Africa, and Europe, the article explores theological foundations of today's world- wide ascend of fascism. Using the example of Anders Behring Breivik’sfamous terrorist attack in Norway, it explores theoretical background for Alt-Right attacks on political correctness and ‘cultural Marxism’. Looking into the 'end of the world' theology and its morality, the article explains deep relationships between Christian fundamentalist prosperity theology and Israel. The article connects Christianity’s forward-looking, linear view of history with ‘end of the world’ theology and capitalism. It explores the postdigital and post-truth nature of evangelical Christians’ public communications and links them to various anti- intellectualist tendencies such as the anti-vaccination movement. Using insights from Marxism, critical pedagogy, and liberation theology, the article demystifies Christian fundamentalist theology and points towards opportunites for resistance.

  • An Examination of the Prosperity Gospel: a Plea for Return to Biblical Truth
    Liberty University Baptist Theological Seminary AN EXAMINATION OF THE PROSPERITY GOSPEL: A PLEA FOR RETURN TO BIBLICAL TRUTH This Thesis Project Submitted to The faculty of Liberty Baptist Theological Seminary In Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Ministry By Aaron B. Phillips Lynchburg, Virginia August 2015 Copyright © 2015 by Aaron B. Phillips All Rights Reserved i Liberty University Baptist Theological Seminary Thesis Project Approval Sheet ______________________________ Dr. Charlie Davidson, Associate Professor of Chaplaincy Mentor ______________________________ Dr. David W. Hirschman Associate Prof of Religion, Reader ii ABSTRACT AN EXAMINATION OF THE PROSPERITY GOSPEL: A PLEA FOR RETURN TO BIBLICAL TRUTH Aaron B. Phillips Liberty University Baptist Theological Seminary, 2015 Mentor: Dr. Charlie Davidson The prosperity gospel teaches that the Bible promises health, wealth and uncommon success to all believers. A problem surfaces when the prosperity that is promised does not materialize to all members of the congregation. In examining the validity of this teaching, extensive writings, books, articles and sermons by leading proponents, have been reviewed. Additionally, interviews with at least one hundred pastors inform this writing. The purpose of the research is to furnish contemporary, active insight to this project. The conclusion of this writer is that the prosperity gospel offers an unbalanced application of scripture, which results in a departure from a clear biblical orientation for articulating the doctrine of Jesus Christ.

  • White Evangelicals and the 2016 Presidential Election Margaret
    ABSTRACT The Elephant in the Room: White Evangelicals and the 2016 Presidential Election Margaret Thonnard Director: Elizabeth Corey, PhD In 2016, eighty-one percent of white evangelical voters voted for Donald Trump—the demographics’ highest showing of support for any presidential candidate in over two decades. Using both existing and original research, this thesis attempts to create awareness for the historical context behind white evangelical support for Donald Trump. Topics covered include the relationships between high-profile evangelicals and presidents such as Nixon and Reagan, as well as the role of televangelists in the 2016 election. After considering the development of partisanship within the evangelical community, the thesis concludes by assessing the practical options available to evangelical voters in upcoming elections.

    The GCAS Review Journal Vol. I, Issue 1/2021 © James McBride Available online at https://www.gcasreview.com/publications Authoritarianism and Religion: Trump and White American Evangelicals in Cultural Perspective James McBride New York University [email protected] Abstract: 81% of white American Evangelicals voted for Trump, despite the fact that he embodied moral values they deem repugnant, a twice-divorced, foul-mouthed adulterer, compulsive liar, and unabashed materialist. White Evangelicals offer two reasons for their support: Trump’s alleged conversion to born-again Christianity and status as a “baby Christian”; and his “chosen-ness” as a messianic figure, akin to King David, supposedly anointed by God despite his immoral behavior. Neither of these answers is satisfying. This paper addresses the contradiction between “family values” voters and Trump by drawing on existing literature concerning the relationship of authoritarianism to religion, arguing that white American Evangelicals support Trump because they resonate with his authoritarian values. Over a period of some 70 years since the original publication of Adorno et al.’s The Authoritarian Personality (TAP), social scientific research has identified key characteristics of authoritarianism. TAP was refined in the 1980s-1990s by Robert Altemeyer who developed a survey instrument on Right-Wing Authoritarianism (RWA) based on the key factors of conventionalism, authoritarian aggression, and authoritarian submission. An examination of Trump’s speeches and tweets confirms his use of authoritarian discourse and his endorsement of authoritarian values, most specifically his narcissistic performance as an alleged “strongman” who “alone” can fix democracy. Although there is no inherent relationship between authoritarianism and religion, researchers have identified links between authoritarian values and the practice of “conventional, unquestioned and unreflected religion” commonly found among Evangelicals.

  • The President's Pastor: Paula White Has Connections and Power. But
    The President’s Pastor: Paula White Has Connections and Power. But Where Does She Get Her Money? The most politically influential Christian in America is a controversial Florida preacher many evangelical Republicans may never have heard of: Paula White, a Florida televangelist. Paula White “Inside this little blond Barbie package is a pit bull!” White recently said of herself. And that pit bull, who has known Donald Trump for about 15 years, is now chair of the president’s Evangelical Advisory Council—a powerful board of Christian leaders advising the administration on everything from political appointments and judiciary nominees to legislative priorities. White has led prayers at both the Republican National Convention and the inauguration. When Trump met in February with prominent conservatives to discuss appointing Neil Gorsuch to the Supreme Court, White sat at the president’s immediate right. She also opened a Rose Garden ceremony last week and stood behind the president as he signed an executive order on religious liberty. Unlike the Obama Administration, Trump will not release visitor logs, so it’s unclear how frequently White has met with the president and his staff. But in January, she described herself as “a person that can walk into [Trump’s] office pretty openly and freely and pray over him.” Last week, on the eve of the National Day of Prayer, White sat at Trump’s table at an intimate private dinner with religious leaders, also presenting the president with a framed page of the King James Bible from 1611 A.D., a gift from the Museum of the Bible.

  • Book Review: Believe Me: the Evangelical Road to Donald Trump
    Review of Believe Me: The Evangelical Road to Donald Trump Review of Believe Me: The Evangelical Road to Donald Trump by John Fea (Grand Rapids, MI: William B. Eerdmans Publishing Company, 2018) In Believe Me: The Evangelical Road to Donald Trump, John Fea, professor of history at Messiah College, has written a fine and all too necessary book that helps explain how we have reached this moment when Christianity Today calls for the impeachment and removal of a sitting president while the broader evangelical church embraces the same leader. A thoughtful, gentle guide for the perplexed, Fea is writing directly (though not exclusively) to fellow “white evangelicals” who share his befuddlement at the overwhelming, fervid, and ongoing support their religious compatriots offer to Donald Trump. It is a question that the mere 19% of white evangelicals (to whom the book is dedicated) who do not support Trump are constantly asking – as are scholars, members of the mainstream media who provide countless bewildered stories about white evangelical men in diners across the rust belt, and, of course, Democratic party activists: how do these “so-called Christians” reconcile themselves to supporting such a crude, self-aggrandizing, and decidedly un-Jesus-like person as Donald J. Trump? Fea takes this question seriously and his mission is two-fold: as a historian, he wants to trace the path that leads to white evangelical support for Trump, and as a white evangelical Fea wants to invite his devout readers to a different path, a road where they might redeem themselves, their faith, and perhaps even their nation.

  • African Evangelicals and President Trump
    African Evangelicals and President Trump By Damaris Parsitau Shortly after the contested November 3rd 2020 US elections, a video of Paula White, President Donald Trump’s spiritual advisor, making an impassioned prayer summoning African and Latin American angels to intercede for President Trump so that he would win the election caused quite a stir throughout Africa, generating not just hilarious memes but also significant debate on social media and in other forums about African evangelicals’ support for Trump. The video that was widely circulated on social media platforms came on the heels of media reports that a section of African evangelicals and Pentecostals and their leaders support Trump and have been holding prayer vigils for his re-election, ostensibly because Trump is viewed as a defender of their faith against the deep state. The chairperson of the Evangelical Alliance of Kenya (EAK), Bishop Mark Kariuki, argued that Trump’s victory would be a victory for “good morals” and that Evangelical and Pentecostal churches in Kenya are “thinking about values”. He said that when former President Barrack Obama came to Kenya in 2016, “We told him not to bring his ‘democratic agenda’ in Kenya, an agenda that advocates for abortion and gay relationships. It is against this background that we are praying that the right person wins the USA election.” It is not just Kenyan evangelicals who support Donald Trump. Similar trends are also evident in Nigeria, Ghana, Liberia, Uganda and many other parts of the African continent where Evangelical and Pentecostal churches have been proliferating since the 1970s. Scholars, social commentators, the media and researchers are baffled by the evangelicals’ support for Trump regardless of his moral and ethical lapses, his divisive, bullish, combative, crude and brash character, his disrespect for women—especially women of colour—his hate for immigrants and Muslims and his inability to condemn white supremacists.

  • The Rhetoric of Trinity Broadcasting Network and the Emergent Word of Faith Movement
    ABSTRACT “MODERN DAY HEROES OF FAITH”: THE RHETORIC OF TRINITY BROADCASTING NETWORK AND THE EMERGENT WORD OF FAITH MOVEMENT by Kathleen Mahoney Hladky This thesis uses Trinity Broadcasting Network (TBN) as a case study for the exploration of religious broadcasting in America and the emergent Word of Faith movement. TBN is investigated as a challenge to the scholarly and popular understandings of religious broadcasting by considering it as a media-based church facilitating religious experience and community through technology. In order to understand TBN and its theological tenets better, the connection between the Word of Faith movement and Trinity Broadcasting Network is demonstrated through statistical and visual analysis of the flagship TBN program Praise the Lord. Additionally, this thesis examines the unique role of technology in TBN’s end-times theology and in the development of Word of Faith. Finally, the political investments of TBN are explored, paying attention to the way that encoded visual texts subtly point readers to a socially conservative, American, and properly Christian, but distinctively TBN, identity. “MODERN DAY HEROES OF FAITH”: THE RHETORIC OF TRINITY BROADCASTING NETWORK AND THE EMERGENT WORD OF FAITH MOVEMENT A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Miami University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Department of Comparative Religion by Kathleen Mahoney Hladky Miami University Oxford, OH 2006 Advisor________________________________ Prof. James Constantine Hanges Reader_________________________________ Prof. Rick Colby Reader_________________________________ Prof. Peter W.
