  • Happy 250th Birthday to an Imperfect Nation
    2026/07/01
    We are Americans best when we are not Americans first. Watch this episode on YouTube In this special Fourth of July episode, Russell revisits conversations with Ken Burns, Eddie Glaude Jr., Michael Luo, Jon Guerra, Yuval Levin, Sharon McMahon, and Jon Meacham to ask what faithful citizenship looks like in an anxious and divided age. Guests in these conversations explore America's founding, its failures, the difference between patriotism and nationalism, the place of immigrants and strangers, the danger of political idolatry, and why Christians must resist both cynicism and sentimentalism. If our ultimate citizenship is in the kingdom of God, perhaps that's precisely what frees us to tell the truth, love our neighbors, and seek the good of the country we've inherited—with gratitude, humility, and hope.

  • How to Have a "Patriotic" Worship Service Without Making America the Point
    2026/06/29
    From the Moore to the Point newsletter: A few weeks ago, Russell wrote here that the 250th anniversary of the United States deserves a better gospel than the false one of Christian nationalism. A pastor wrote in to ask what his church should do on the Sunday before this important Independence Day. Here’s what Russell told him.Keep up with Russell: Sign up for the weekly newsletter where Russell shares thoughtful takes on big questions, offers a Christian perspective on life, and recommends books and music he's enjoying.

  • Andy Crouch on Why Technology Can’t Cure Loneliness
    2026/06/24
    What if the thing we're craving most isn't more control over our lives, but deeper connection with other people? As Russell takes some time away with his family this summer, we're revisiting a conversation that feels even more relevant now than when it first aired in 2022. Back then, Russell sat down with Andy Crouch to discuss technology, smartphones, social media, and Andy's book The Life We're Looking For. Listening again today, it's hard not to hear something deeper..this isn't only a conversation about screens, but about what it means to be human. Andy argues that many of us have accepted a trade we never consciously chose: more convenience in exchange for less presence, more control in exchange for less connection, more power in exchange for less personhood. Together, he and Russell explore why so many people feel unseen in an age of constant communication, why children often recognize our technological addictions before we do, and how the church can recover a vision of life rooted not in efficiency, but in relationships. This conversation asks: “What is the life we're actually looking for?” And in a moment when many of us feel exhausted by the digital world we've built around ourselves, Andy offers a hopeful answer.

  • If You've Seen Jesus, You Have Seen the Father
    2026/06/17
    With Father’s Day on Sunday, Russell reflects on some of the most memorable conversations from the Russell Moore Show about fathers, sons, parenting, loss, and what it means to call God our Father. Along the way, Tim Alberta remembers a father whose grace ran deeper than disagreement. Eddie Glaude Jr. recalls the words his parents used to shield his soul from hatred. Beth Moore shares how she learned to trust God as Father despite a painful childhood. Richard Reeves explains why young men need father figures—and why communities need them. Karen Swallow Prior offers wisdom for those carrying the grief of infertility. Lecrae reflects on learning that his children's love is not something to be earned, and Allen Levi points to the quiet saints who shape lives through ordinary faithfulness. Some listeners will celebrate Father's Day with gratitude. Others will approach it with grief, disappointment, longing, or complicated memories. This conversation makes room for all of it. Because whether our earthly fathers were present or absent, wise or wounded, Jesus reveals the Father we have been searching for all along—the one who looks at his children and says, "You are my beloved."

  • David French on the Last Ten Years
    2026/06/10
    What would the Russell Moore and David French of 2026 say to their 2016 selves? Watch this conversation on YouTube Our friend David French joins for a look back on what has changed since 2016 in American politics and American evangelicalism. Russell and David examine the influence of Pentecostalism, prosperity theology, church-growth culture, the missional movement, and New Calvinism, and how Donald Trump was emboldened by the culture they’ve cultivated. They wrestle with questions of power, certainty, leadership, gender, and why political identity has increasingly become a defining force within many Christian communities. At risk of living only in the past, Russell and David also consider the future. They debate the coming impact of artificial intelligence on law, politics, and society, reflect on whether America’s current culture of cynicism and tribalism can correct itself, and share what they hope future generations will say about this era. Ultimately, the two ask whether renewal is still possible—for the church, for the country, and for a public life. Can we engage in building a culture shaped less by power and fear, but rather character, truth, and neighborly love? Plus: What if David French had run for president in 2016?
