In this episode of The City of God podcast, host Rob Pacienza welcomes author and cultural commentator Allie Beth Stuckey for a powerful conversation recorded live at the Kingdom Come Conference in Fort Lauderdale.
Allie unpacks the concept of toxic empathy—a counterfeit compassion that prioritizes feelings over truth and distorts Christian love. Whether it’s gender ideology, abortion, or same-sex marriage, many believers are being emotionally manipulated into affirming lies in the name of “kindness.”
Drawing from her book Toxic Empathy: How Progressives Exploit Christian Compassion, Allie shows how well-meaning Christians are being swept into secular narratives that sound loving on the surface—but ultimately deny God’s design for truth, justice, and order.
This episode is a call to courage, clarity, and conviction in an emotionally charged age.
