Aaron Renn Reveals how Carmel, Indiana Became the Internet's Favorite Small City!

Today, The Two Mikes welcomed back Aaron Renn to the program after
much too long of an absence.
Mr. Renn is an author, a specialist on urban areas, big and small,
as well as a devout and very knowledgeable Christian, who often
writes about his faith.

Today he described his experience in moving to and now living in
Carmel, Indiana, which is a suburb on the northside of
Indianapolis. Mr. Renn noted that the city’s Republican mayor –
James Brainard – recently retired after seven consecutive terms and
left behind a jewel of a smaller city, one that has been voted the
“internet’s favorite small city.

The city remains small – c, 100,000 people, but it is now a world
class place in terms of employment, education, commerce, and
livability. Much of the city features new buildings of all kinds,
and new roads that make moving around the city easy at all times of
the day. Carmel has shown the rest of America than genuine
conservative governments can play a key role in the physical and
attitudinal restoration, especially in making sure that thrift and
commonsense permeate the rebuilding effort.

Mr. Renn added that Indiana is a reliably conservative Republican
state, and it also is a strong-Mayor state and so is well
positioned to oversee the conduct of this Carmel-kind of successful
urban reinvigoration.

We also spoke shortly with Mr. Renn about a new book he has
written. The Book is called, Life in a Negative World. Confronting
Challenges in an Anti-Christian Culture.

The book will be published on 30 January 2024. Mr. Renn said the
book is about the future of the Evangelical Church and what it must
do to confront, survive, and thrive when most of the country’s
political and social elites reject Christ and desire all Americans
to do so.

Mr. Renn also writes that the church must especially work to
support men and the key role the need to play -- in a traditional
way – in defending family, country, and God.

Mr. Renn’s book is available now at Amazon for pre-order, and for
sale on 30 January 2024
