New Apostolic Reformation: Firebrand Trumpers Galvanizing a Multi-Racial Evangelical Base – André Gagné
Throughout his recent presidential campaigns, former President Trump has garnered widespread conservative Evangelical support and the endorsement of powerful televangelists such as Paula White-Cain. André Gagné, Professor of Theology at Concordia University, explains the New Apostolic Reformation and its ties to the Neo-Charismatic Pentecostal movement, which constitutes the largest growing sector of Christianity both globally and within the United States. In the U.S., Neo-Charismatic Christianity has been largely hijacked by New Apostolic Reformation firebrand Trump supporters who push a radical conservative agenda.
I agree with Paul Lambert. The background music of this video is intrusive. A welcome alternative would be a loop of someone from “theAnalysis.news” riffing on their saxaphone. Aaron Copeland’s “Fanfare for the Common Man” would be inspiring, but it’s probably under copyright.
I applaud the excellent work you do, It’s so important. I know this sounds trivial in comparison, but can you please drop the aggressive intrusive “music’? I had to watch this using subtitles.
