The Bulletin

Your Own Personal Jesus

Trump wins the NH primary, TikTok Jesus hawks a prosperity gospel, and Lenin is dead (still).

This week on The Bulletin, hosts Mike Cosper, Nicole Martin, and Russell Moore are joined by The Dispatch columnist Mona Charen for a New Hampshire primary postmortem. The quartet discuss Nikki Haley’s viability, Trump’s domination at the polls, and what America needs as it moves toward the general election. Next, Mike, Nicole, and Russell deep-dive into TikTok and find an AI Jesus who promises to fulfill our deepest longings, prompting the question, Is our understanding of faith too transactional? Finally, this week marked the 100th anniversary of Vladimir Lenin’s death. If the dead still speak, what can they say about our present moment?
