Christian Scientist Dr. John G. West Joins Jesse! (Teaser)

On this week's episode of TheFallenState TV, host Jesse Lee Peterson is joined by Dr. John G. West—He is an author, Christian scientist, and the Vice President of the Discovery Institute in Seattle, Washington. He has a new book coming out called 'Stockholm Syndrome Christianity'. Dr. West unpacks why so many churches seem to “make peace” with hostile cultural pressures, and what courage, truth, and repentance look like in an age of compromise. He and Jesse dig into the relationship between science and faith, the state of American institutions, and how believers can resist ideological capture without losing grace. Lively, clear, and surprisingly hopeful, this conversation challenges viewers to think harder about where the church is headed—and how to stand firm. They also revisit the long-running debate over intelligent design, academic freedom, and why dissenting voices in science and theology get silenced. Dr. West shares practical steps for pastors, parents, and students to reclaim bold, truth-centered Christianity in everyday life
