Managers to Monarchs: The emergence of post-secular power

As the lines between democracy and monarchy blur, what kind of power are we living under—and what kind of authority do we trust? In this episode of Rebuilders , Mark, Liddy, and Daniel explore the seismic shifts happening in how power is exercised and understood in our time. From Max Weber’s classic categories of authority to the rise of charismatic leaders like Donald Trump, they trace how the erosion of rational-legal power and the resurgence of personality-driven, almost “royal” rule are reshaping politics, culture, and even the church. Is Trump’s style of leadership a symptom—or the beginning—of a deeper cultural shift? Are we witnessing a post-secular return to sacred forms of power? And what does it mean for Christians to live under the authority of a very different kind of king? 👉 Sign up for show notes and resources at rebuilders.co
