The Religion Business Exposed (ft. Nathan Apffel)

This week on Chrisley Confessions 2.0, Todd Chrisley sits down with filmmaker and entrepreneur Nathan Apffel for a conversation that challenges a lot of what we think we know about faith, the church, and the systems built around it. Nathan is the director of The Religion Business, a docuseries that takes a hard look at how money, power, and lack of accountability have shaped modern Christianity. And from the start, Todd makes it clear… this isn’t going to be a comfortable conversation. It’s one that asks questions, digs deeper, and forces a closer look at what faith is supposed to be versus what it’s become. The two dive into everything from billion-dollar church empires and financial transparency to cover-up culture and the responsibility of believers to question what they’re being taught. Nathan shares what led him down this path, including personal experiences that changed the way he saw the church, and Todd opens up about how this project made him reflect on his own upbringing in faith. This episode isn’t about tearing faith down. It’s about separating truth from tradition, asking better questions, and understanding the difference between believing in God and trusting the institutions built in His name.
