In this episode, Elizabeth Neumann, national security contributor for ABC News and former counterterrorism advisor, draws on years of experience studying extremism and violence to name a hopeful truth: the Church is not sidelined in this cultural moment. It is essential.

Elizabeth walks listeners through the path toward radicalization and extremism, showing how words, rhetoric, and narratives shape culture long before violence ever appears. From a Jesus-centered perspective, she invites the Church to reclaim its role as a healing presence, one that forms people in love, humility, and peace rather than fear and grievance.

This conversation challenges followers of Jesus to consider how everyday language and reactions shape the world around us, and how peacemaking can become a faithful response in fractured times.
