Christianity Declining in Europe | Ask A Christian Podcast

Focus Keyphrase: Christianity declining in Europe

Ever wonder why Christianity is declining in Europe at breakneck speed? Nate Cunningham and the crew tackle this question with first-century fire, a side of cold brew oolong tea, and zero fear of uncomfortable truths. From spiritual warfare to secular governments, relics that would make Indiana Jones weep, and whether that homeless guy at Dunkin’ Donuts might be an angel—this episode has it all. Buckle up.

Christianity Declining in Europe: The Biblical Bottom Line

Why is Christianity declining in Europe? Nate does not mince words: it is intentional, it is spiritual, and it is devastating. From a biblical standpoint, spiritual entities—demons and the devil himself—are celebrating this decline while secularist governments smugly deny their existence. The irony is not lost on anyone paying attention. Europe is importing non-Christian populations by the millions while its native Christian culture grows complacent, nominally Christian at best. Ephesians 6:12 reminds us we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against spiritual forces of evil. This is not conspiracy theory—this is Scripture. The decline is not accidental; it is spiritual warfare playing out in real time. For more on how faith intersects with modern culture, check out our Faith & Culture category.

Meanwhile, Protestants Mock Catholic Relics and Nate Becomes a Tea Sommelier

In a delightful detour, the crew dissects the Catholic obsession with relics—specifically the jaw and tongue of St. Anthony of Padua, encased in what can only be described as a terrifying gold space suit straight out of Lord of the Rings. Nate and Steph agree: stop that. Just stop. Meanwhile, Nate announces his life-changing switch from coffee to cold brew oolong tea after his family brought back a Canadian plague that left him sick, caffeinated, and existentially exhausted. The tea is organic, unsweetened, and apparently the answer to all of life’s problems—or at least his headache. Also, someone from Gambia popped in asking for money, which spiraled into a theological debate about entertaining angels unaware (Hebrews 13:2) and whether the homeless guy at Dunkin’ Donuts qualifies. Spoiler: Nate bought him a bagel anyway. This is why we love this podcast.
