Whitney Lynn went viral for preaching to a captive airplane full of passengers — then claiming she was persecuted for it. But she's not some random street preacher. She's a MAGA "evangelist" who has publicly supported Trump, said "Make America Great Again," and warned that Christians will be persecuted once he's out of office.
In this clip from Tuesday's live stream with Ken Napzok, I walk through her own words — on camera, in her own post — and then break down why calling a bad flight "persecution" isn't just embarrassing, it's theologically hollow. This is what happens when evangelical Trump support curdles into a full-blown persecution complex: it cheapens the Gospel and it cheapens real suffering.
We talk about:
What Whitney Lynn actually said about Trump, on the record
Why this is a symptom of a much bigger Christian nationalism problem in American evangelicalism
Why manufactured victimhood is corrosive to authentic Christian witness
If you're an exvangelical, an independent, or just a Christian tired of watching the faith get hijacked for political theater, this one's for you.
