Dennis tells the “so what?” story that changed his life… A Christian girls high school basketball team refuses to play against a team that features a biological male. May a thousand such protests bloom… The Left creates crises. “Cultural appropriation” is a good example. New Los Angeles Mayor, Karen Bass, plans to lower both mental and physical standards to build up police recruitment. Is there any way this ends up well?... If the residents of San Francisco were presented with the Ten Commandments, would they accept it or reject it? Dennis talks to Daniel Dreisbach, professor at American University in the School of Public Affairs. He has written extensively on the Bible and the nation's founding.

How did the American Founders read the Bible? What wisdom did they find there? How did their literary sensibilities interact with their political ones in reading the Bible? And how does this history stay with us today? To unpack all this, Ari spoke with Professor at the American University in Washington D.C., and author of “Reading The Bible With The Founding Fathers”, Daniel Dreisbach. They talked the Book of Deuteronomy in the Founding Era; political order in the Bible; the Bible on the fate of nations; television as a modern American lingua franca; the sermon as public intellectual genre; the first prayer in the history of Congress; George Washington's favorite Biblical verse; Biblical law and the Constitution; and much more! Good Faith Effort is a production of Bnai Zion and SoulShop.

On today's show, Tim welcomes pilot and local resident Mark Sorie. Mark discusses his life, specifically the story of his plane's engine failing while flying. He talks about trusting in God, the importance of having faith, and stress management during trying times. Then, Professor and Author Daniel Dreisbach joins the show to discuss and promote his latest book, Reading the Bible with the Founding Fathers. Shedding new light on some of the most familiar rhetoric of the founding era, Daniel analyzes the founders' diverse use of scripture, ranging from the literary to the theological. He shows that they looked to the Bible for insights on human nature, civic virtue, political authority, and the rights and duties of citizens, as well as for political and legal models to emulate. They quoted scripture to authorize civil resistance, to invoke divine blessings for righteous nations, and to provide the language of liberty that would be appropriated by patriotic Americans.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

No book was more accessible or familiar to the American founders than the Bible, and no book was more frequently alluded to or quoted from in the political discourse of the age. How and for what purposes did the founding generation use the Bible? How did the Bible influence their political culture? Shedding new light on some of the most familiar rhetoric of the founding era, Daniel Dreisbach analyzes the founders’ diverse use of scripture, ranging from the literary to the theological. He shows that they looked to the Bible for insights on human nature, civic virtue, political authority, and the rights and duties of citizens, as well as for political and legal models to emulate. They quoted Scripture to authorize civil resistance, to invoke divine blessings for righteous nations, and to provide the language of liberty that would be appropriated by patriotic Americans. Reading the Bible with the Founding Fathers (Oxford University Press, 2016) broaches the perennial question of whether the American founding was, to some extent, informed by religious–specifically Christian–ideas. In the sense that the founding generation were members of a biblically literate society that placed the Bible at the center of culture and discourse, the answer to that question is clearly yes. Ignoring the Bible’s influence on the founders, Dreisbach warns, produces a distorted image of the American political experiment, and of the concept of self-government on which America is built.

I veckans Människor och tro tittar vi närmare på den bakomliggande konflikten som gjort torkan i Somalia till en hungerkatastrof. Vad spelar religionen för roll? Journalisten Abdi Aynte som skriver en bok om al-Shabaab, Sally Healy på forskningsinstitutet Chatham House i London och Amina Said, svensksomalier som var med och tog initiativ till den somaliska regeringen. I Spanien har påvens besök föranlett våldsamma protester. Sveriges Radios Sydeuropakorrespondent Alice Petrén, reder ut begreppen. Dessutom handlar det om sufierna som blivit västs favoritriktning inom islam. Vi möter Andreas Hasslert från Trelleborg som lärt sig mycket genom att bara vara nära sin läromästare på Cypern. Natacha López träffar honom, Simon Stjernholm vid Lunds universitet och Shadi Barakat som utbildar sig till imam i Jemen och leder den enda sufi-ordern i södra Sverige. Utrikeskrönikan kommer från Washington. Inger Arenander begrundar kyrkan och papperslösa flyktingar. Dessutom om Tea party-rörelsen i USA som med glödande tro - även på dödsstraff - nu blir en allt viktigare spelare i politiken. Tea party-rörelsen har både likheter och skillnader när man jämför med den religiösa högern. Och nu snubblar republikanerna över varandra när de springer högerut för att möta Tea party-folkets krav. Sören Wibeck intervjuar Allan Lichtman som har skrivit en bok om vägen till Vita huset med titeln "13 nycklar till Vita huset" och professorn i statskunskap Daniel Dreisbach.
