Author Tim Alberta Explains Evangelicals’ Faith in Donald Trump | The View

I am a "white evangelical christian" and have never nor will I ever vote for Trump. We are to be kind and loving and gentle to EVERYONE...wonderful interview and I completely agree with Tim.

When people think you've walked away from the Faith because you walked away from Donald Trump... That says a lot about who they themselves are actually worshiping.

I have his book on tape and it is absolutely spot on about evangelical Christians. I am an evangelical Christian and follow the teachings of Jesus Christ. I will NEVER align myself with the likes of Trump or any pastor who supports Trump or the hatred portrayed by Republicans or anyone who forgets Jesus told us to care for the poor, the sick, the downtrodden, the foreigner, and to love your brother as yourself. Christ is the centerpiece of the gospel.

I really appreciate that “The View” had Tim on, and promoted his book. Thank you. Loved the interview! I’m a Christian who has been called horrific (ungodly) names by the Trump worshipers!

As someone who grew up in a very religious household, I can say that video he shows at rallies is one of the most blasphemous things I've ever seen. I don't think he ever went inside a church when he was President. Clearly these people forgot the verse that says 'Beware of False Prophets that come to you in sheep's clothing but inwardly they are ravening wolves". I hope Tim keeps reminding everyone with this book

Listen to the Quote from Pastor Alberta "realize trump is here to test your faith not to guide your faith" Turn to Christ and repent. That's the Christian message

It’s really refreshing to hear the viewpoint of a practicing Christian who has expressed his opinions in such a way that it is clear that he has employed critical thinking along with empathy and eloquence to explain the current zeitgeist.

I grew up evangelical (now lapsed) and do not recognize what the church has become. The book is excellent, and should be required reading for every Christian in America.

the rape is not alleged, he was found guilty by a jury of his peers, he is in court because of his continued defaming of his victim

This was one of the best segments on this show I’ve ever watched.

Thank you for your courage, Tim Alberta. I am reading your book and it resonates so deeply with me. Praying for the church in the US.

The best Christlike reflection have heard from an American (Evangelical bred). Tim, thank you. Many are called, few are chosen. Your sense of apostolate duty is apt.

I am a Christian who goes to a church that believes in the Jesus's Great Commission, which is to tell others about Him. That makes me evangelical. I am a Never Trumper. The man is evil. It breaks my heart that some Christians have made him their idol - and a deeply flawed one at that! I want to say thank you for having this author on your show. I know more Christians that believe the way he does than the way Trumpers belief. My church had a few people leave who wanted the pastor to shout Trump's praise from the pulpit. My pastor refused. I pray that Democrats, Independents, and Republicans alike vote in primaries against Trump so he cannot be on the ballot.

I'm not a religious person but I can't fathom that those people are truly "evangelical christian" if allegiance to trump is what they consider as having faith

Wow, I have wondered for a long time why the Evangelicals would support someone as heinous as DJT and now I understand the situation so much better. Great interview, great viewpoints!

I listen to this book on audiobooks while I’m driving and sometimes I felt like I had to pull over to the side of the road. Absolutely stunning and heartbreaking. It’s not a comfortable read if your philosophy is Christian Nationalism. But sometimes you need to be uncomfortable to grow.

Tim - as an evangelical myself, i cannot thank you enough for your courage in the face of what can only be described as cultism and sacrilege. So many are too afraid of the evil man to speak truth to power - i suppose it's power for which they are lusting. God bless!

Times are terrifying when ppl cant see the difference between good vs evil. This guy was so well spoken and he hit the nail on the head with everything.

Absolutely love Tim's uncomfortable question, it should be used more often.

Not everything is about religion or race. It's about doing what's right.
