What if American culture isn’t collapsing because of crusading secularists? What if it’s failing because many leading Christians identify more with secular elites than with their fellow believers? Frank sits down with Dr. John G. West—author of 'Stockholm Syndrome Christianity', and Vice President of the Discovery Institute—to uncover why some of the most influential Christian voices seem to be echoing the values of secular culture rather than confronting them. Frank and John tackle some uncomfortable but necessary questions like:

  • How did Stockholm Syndrome get its name and what does it reveal about human nature?
  • Why are some believers supporting secular policies that contradict biblical truth?
  • What’s really at stake when Christians abandon truth in the name of “love”?
  • How can parents discern whether a “Christian college” is truly grounded in Christ—and what 10 critical questions should they ask?
  • How have high-profile figures like Francis Collins, Russell Moore, and David French used their influence to advocate for unbiblical policies while demonizing some Christians?
  • Are conservatives too harsh or just unwilling to capitulate? And what can faithful followers of Jesus do to push back against 'Stockholm Syndrome Christianity'?

Going beyond critique, the book identifies root causes and—most crucially—offers practical tips and strategies you can use to help your family, church, and community stand for truth. Read this book to become part of the solution and discern when and where to draw the line between faith and culture.
