Title: The Radicalization of Young White Men

Description: In this timely and challenging episode of NEXT 2.0, host Chuck Cammarata sits down with Rev. Angela Denker—Lutheran pastor, journalist, and author of the new book Disciples of White Jesus: The Radicalization of American Boyhood. Together, they explore the unsettling trend of radicalization among young white men in America, and the role that right-wing Christianity, online influencers, and cultural isolation have played in shaping this movement.

Rev. Denker draws from her background in ministry and journalism to explain how themes like “traditional gender roles,” male dominance, and purity culture are being weaponized in some Christian circles, leading to toxic masculinity, disillusionment, and even violence. The conversation also touches on the shift in voting patterns, with more young men backing candidates who promote misogynistic and racist agendas—contrary to the values many churches claim to hold.
