UNCOMPROMISING RELIGIOSITY

Interview with Martin Radermacher on "ProSieben THEMA"

Martin Radermacher has been interviewed for the ProSieben program THEMA. In the episode entitled “Radical Christians and their grip on power?”, which was broadcast on October 28, 2024, Radermacher speaks as an expert on contemporary religious movements and evangelicalism in particular. Among other things, he explains why the evangelical movement is so appealing to younger people in particular and what social and political goals evangelicalism pursues.

The episode, hosted by journalist Thilo Mischke, focuses on the religious, social and political dimensions of modern evangelical movements. In this context, the documentary looks specifically at the appeal of mega-worship services and the role of promises of healing, but also analyzes the ideological goals pursued by fundamentalist Christian movements from the evangelical spectrum and the links between radical beliefs and right-wing politics. It also looks at the impact of evangelicalism in Europe.
