How Are Protestants Navigating a Moral and Spiritual Vacuum in Evangelicalism?   Host Curtis Chang talks with former White House staffer and Atlantic columnist Pete Wehner about why Pope Leo XIV is resonating with Protestants and evangelicals despite historic theological divides. Together, they explore the Pope's moral leadership while contrasting his dignified, intellectually grounded public witness with Donald Trump's increasingly erratic influence on evangelical political culture. The conversation examines a perceived spiritual leadership vacuum within Protestantism and calls pastors, congregations, and followers of Jesus to cultivate beauty, goodness, and truth as a long-term path toward renewing Christian public witness.   00:34 - Introduction to Pope Leo XIV's Influence 02:29 - Is There a Protestant Appreciation for Catholicism? 03:59 - What Is This Pope's Impact on Public Theology? 06:06 - Papal Influence in Past Administrations 11:19 - The Collapse of Evangelical Public Theology 14:18 - Can Protestants Still Exert Moral Influence? 21:16 - The "Mad King" and Trump's Cognitive Decline 28:42 - What Can Pastors Do? 32:00 - The Importance of Beauty, Goodness, and Truth 37:08 - What Is The Pope's Transcendent Influence?   Sign up for the Anxiety Opportunity Course Use the code: Goodfaith Sign up for The After Party Sign up for The Good List   Referenced in the Episode: Pete Wehner's article "The American Pope vs. the American President"  Pete Wehner's article "The Apotheosis of Donald Trump" Pope Leo XIV's Encyclical Letter: Magnifica Humanitas The Madness of King George (YouTube free with ads) David Bentley Hart's The Beauty of the Infinite Wordsworth's The Prelude, Book 14  Good Faith's course: The After Party   Scriptures Referenced: 1 Timothy 3 (ESV) Titus 1 (ESV)   Protestant and Catholic Leaders Referenced: Pope John Paul II Pope Benedict XVI Pope Francis Reinhold Niebuhr C.S.

Episode 4157 │ June 24, 2026 America's moral collapse isn't coming from outside. The statistics from inside the church prove it. And AI just made it catastrophically worse. WHAT THIS EPISODE COVERS Scott Kesterson opens with a comment posted to the previous night's show blaming outside forces for America's moral collapse — and uses it as the entry point into a documented statistical case that the rot is not external but structural, embedded in the institutions the nation has trusted most. Drawing on the John Jay Report, the Guidepost Solutions SBC investigation, international clergy abuse data from France, Australia, and Germany, and cross-denominational Protestant surveys, Scott builds the case that the pattern across every denomination is identical — move the offender, silence the survivor, protect the brand — while the church's own pornography statistics reveal a congregation-wide crisis that 69% of church leaders acknowledge and 7% have any infrastructure to address. The episode closes with the emergence of AI-generated child sexual abuse material as the newest escalation pathway — self-coaching dark web communities building synthetic abuse content from children's social media images, an unbroken pipeline from consumption to normalization to contact offense, and a Supreme Court ruling already suggesting First Amendment protections may apply — while the church, the one institution with the moral authority to lead the response, remains largely silent. KEY QUESTIONS ADDRESSED  What do the documented statistics across Catholic, Southern Baptist, and Protestant denominations reveal about whether the church's child abuse crisis is an exception or a structural pattern — and why does decentralized church governance make the problem systematically worse? What is the escalation pathway from pornography normalization to AI-generated child sexual abuse material to contact offenses — and why does a Wisconsin Supreme Court ruling on First Amendment protections make the AI dimension nearly impossible to prosecute? What does Dostoevsky's warning about self-deception have to do with the comment blaming Muslim immigration for America's moral collapse — and why is the rot actually internal rather than imported?

For over a century, Alfred Hitchcock has remained one of cinema’s most influential directors. Known as the Master of Suspense, this visionary filmmaker directed more than fifty films over six decades. His thriller “The Lodger” (1927) marked the start of his signature style, which was later exemplified in classic films like “Vertigo” (1958), “North by Northwest” (1959), “Psycho” (1960), and “The Birds” (1963). Hitchcock’s work received tremendous success and critical acclaim. While he never won the competitive Academy Award for Best Director, he received five Oscar nominations, two Golden Globes, the Irving G. Thalberg Memorial Award, a BAFTA Fellowship, multiple lifetime achievement awards, and two stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Nine of his films are preserved in the United States National Film Registry. His mastery of tension, innovative camera techniques, and psychological depth continue to inspire and influence modern filmmakers such as Christopher Nolan, Jordan Peele, and Bong Joon Ho. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0NUJN1fq0Sc Drawing on new archival research, previously unpublished interviews, and a rigorous examination of key biographies, “A Century of Hitchcock” challenges the long-standing narratives that have shaped Hitchcock’s legacy. Author Tony Lee Moral revisits controversial claims regarding Hitchcock’s alleged abuses, scrutinizing biographer Donald Spoto’s interpretations—particularly Spoto’s portrayal of the director’s relationship with actress Tippi Hedren. With his analysis of Spoto’s 1980 interview of Hedren, Moral reveals for the first time how one key document contradicts decades of exaggeration. In this comprehensive reappraisal of Hitchcock’s career, Moral encourages readers to explore the complexities of creative collaboration and the risks of relying on a single biographical narrative. Marking one hundred years since Hitchcock’s first film, “The Pleasure Garden”, and fifty years since his last film, “Family Plot”, Moral reexamines the director’s cinematic brilliance, storytelling mastery, creative partnerships, and controversies, offering a fresh perspective on Hitchcock’s legacy in the post-#MeToo era.

In this emergency reaction episode, we discuss Widow's Bay, a TV show that has consumed us like Richard Warren gobbling up evil psychedelic mushrooms during a winter famine.

In this message from the Controversial Christianity series, we tackle a topic that hits close to home for many families: youth sports culture. While sports can be fun, meaningful, and even formative, they also carry powerful influences that can shape our values; sometimes in ways that conflict with our faith. We explore why this conversation matters, especially in a church filled with parents and kids deeply involved in athletics. Sports can be an incredible tool for character formation, relationship building, and living out our faith in everyday life; but only if we approach them with intention. The challenge? Modern youth sports culture often promotes values like: Winning at all costs Performance as identity Overcommitment and pressure Left unchecked, these values can take priority over what truly matters. Instead, we're called to a greater “why”: Moral formation – shaping character and Christlikeness Family mission – using sports as a platform to love others and share Jesus Personal joy – enjoying the gift of the game without letting it define us Through practical guidance, we're reminded to: Put identity in Christ, not performance Prioritize character over results Choose healthy team cultures Stay rooted in faith, even during busy sports seasons And one truth we can't ignore: The odds of going pro in sports are incredibly small; but the reality of standing before God someday is 100%. So the question becomes: Is our “why” big enough? Let's reorient our lives, our parenting, and our priorities around Jesus, using every field, court, and game as an opportunity to reflect His love.

Jonathan Drake is still long winded, Section Two of Spooner's "Natural Law" is still just one paragraph, and yet somehow this takes an entire episode. Predictably, it earns every minute. The central distinction of the night is one that sounds simple until you think about it: being illegal is always immoral, but being immoral is not always illegal. Legal violations empower the executioner. Moral violations empower your neighbors to stop returning your calls. Meting out the punishment reserved for one in the case of the other is itself a short circuit. Jonathan then turns to the concept of exigency, arguing that justice delayed is justice denied, and that the modern legal system's bloat and cost are not accidental. The episode closes with a deep dive into Kian vs. Florida, a SCOTUS case challenging whether a six-person jury satisfies the constitutional guarantee, and Florida's breathtaking response: overturning the precedent would jeopardize 90% of federal civil verdicts. Jonathan's take? That is precisely the point.

Vom Jurastudenten mit dem Berufsziel Staatsanwalt zum Priester und Domvikar: Jörg Stockem vom Kölner Dom erzählt zum Auftakt der Podcast-Woche, wie ihn das Strafrecht einst faszinierte und warum schließlich "der Heilige Geist zugeschlagen" hat. Heute sorgt er als Domzeremoniar dafür, dass die großen Gottesdienste im Dom würdig gefeiert werden. Und er schwärmt von seinem Arbeitsplatz: "Wenn die Menschen den Dom sehen, geht das Herz auf."Im Evangelium mahnt Jesus, nicht vorschnell über andere zu urteilen, sondern zunächst den eigenen "Balken im Auge" wahrzunehmen. Jörg Stockem macht deutlich, dass Jesus Missstände keineswegs verschweigt, wohl aber die Selbstgerechtigkeit kritisiert. "Keiner ist frei von Schuld", sagt der Domvikar. Besonders spannend wird seine Deutung für die Gegenwart: Christlicher Glaube sei nicht zuerst eine Frage von Moral und Vorschriften. "Vor aller Moral steht erst einmal die Begegnung mit dem lebendigen Gott."Ein Gespräch über Berufung, Selbstkritik und die Frage, was im Glauben wirklich an erster Stelle steht. Jetzt reinhören!Aus dem Matthäusevangelium:In jener Zeit sprach Jesus zu seinen Jüngern: Richtet nicht, damit ihr nicht gerichtet werdet! Denn wie ihr richtet, so werdet ihr gerichtet werden und nach dem Maß, mit dem ihr messt, werdet ihr gemessen werden.Warum siehst du den Splitter im Auge deines Bruders, aber den Balken in deinem Auge bemerkst du nicht? Oder wie kannst du zu deinem Bruder sagen: Lass mich den Splitter aus deinem Auge herausziehen! – und siehe, in deinem Auge steckt ein Balken! Du Heuchler! Zieh zuerst den Balken aus deinem Auge, dann kannst du zusehen, den Splitter aus dem Auge deines Bruders herauszuziehen!

Trigger warning: This discussion includes talk about sexual assault and sexual violence. This is a theme apparent in the film and the source material. It is mentioned a few times. The topic is not spoken about in detail, but I wanted to share a general trigger warning for those that would prefer to avoid the topic altogether. Subtitles for the intro: "It's not that I specialise in treating fingers. I'm a psychiatrist in fact. Inferiority complexes dig holes in the psyche, and I fill them in."

The film was the second of four in which Teshigahara would collaborate with writer Kōbō Abe.*  The Face of Another rode the coattails of Woman in the Dunes but was nowhere near as successful. Although both films have a very bleak undertone, The Face of Another feels more jarring and less abstract in its confrontations. The story is of a man horribly disfigured from an accident in the lab where he works. He manages to find a possible solution to the isolation and desperation he experiences when he is given the opportunity to have a new face with which to navigate life. The story has many philosophical themes set in a Japan that is still wrangling with its post war cultural identity.  Thankfully I have managed to procure two big brained and generous guests! Roger Luckhurst is a Professor at Birkbeck, University of London. He has written/edited numerous articles and books on cultural history and film. Jennifer Coates is a Professor of Japanese Studies at the University of Sheffield. She has written extensively about Japanese cultural history and cinema and is the President of the British Association of Japanese Studies. During the intro to the show I mention a video essay that I watched during research for the film which I found very interesting. You can find it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yarOXWeZlzY Although this is not directly relevant to the film, one of the earliest shots is an x-ray of a skull in conversation. This is reminiscent of the very early 1996 film usually known as Macintyre's X-Ray Film.  Just a small historical film curiosity which you might be interested in.

Pour yourself a cup of coffee, find a comfortable chair, and let the world slow down for a few minutes. In this episode of The Coffee Buzz, we unpack the biting social commentary and deep psychological insight of Verse 18 of the Tao Te Ching. This verse presents us with a radical challenge to our modern obsession with rules, policies, and performative virtue. Today, we explore why a sudden abundance of moral rules usually means we've lost our underlying connection to reality, and how we can find our way back to an authentic, unmanufactured way of living.In This Episode, We Pour Over:The Paradox of Enforced Goodness: Why talking endlessly about virtue and piety is often a sign that the genuine flow of life has been forgotten.The Substitute Trap: How our culture relies on clever metrics, branding, and strict rules to fake an organic harmony that we've let slip through our fingers.Tending the Source: Moving past the performative demands of family duty or external righteousness to nurture simple, natural connection in our everyday interactions.Featured Reading: Verse 18 of the Tao Te Ching (Stephen Mitchell translation).Join the Conversation: Where in your life are you relying on a rigid rulebook or an abstract policy rather than trusting your natural instincts or authentic connection? How can you loosen your dependence on performance metrics this week and just sit with the real thing? Let me know in the comments below.

Pope Pius XII was dying. He knew the Church was facing a crisis that would not come from outside, but from within. In his final months, he commissioned a sweeping encyclical, Cultum Regni, "Worship of the King of Kings"—intended to condemn the theological errors already spreading through Catholic seminaries and universities. He died before it could be published. The document was buried. And the Church chose a different path.Now, newly uncovered Vatican archival research has brought the draft to light. What it reveals is stunning: Pius XII anticipated almost every theological dispute that would erupt after Vatican II. The sacrificial nature of the Mass. The authority of the magisterium. Moral relativism. Doctrinal ambiguity. Ecumenism. The relationship between Church and state. He saw the Nouvelle Théologie for what it was, Modernism dressed in new language, and he was preparing to stop it.

It's tempting to think suffering should be avoided at all costs, but moral suffering has its own distinct standing. It signals a moral conscience. Every day people consume real time violence, grief, war and genocide through screens and experience moral upending. Without a moral compass there's no motivation to address necessary issues.Guests in this episode:Cynda Rushton is a nurse and a professor of nursing and bioethics at Johns Hopkins University.Robert Meagher is an emeritus professor at Hampshire College in Amherst, Massachusetts.Thea Lim is a novelist, culture writer, and creative writing teacher in Toronto.

Is America's moral decline primarily the result of an unfaithful church—or are Christians wrongly blaming the bride of Christ for the rebellion of an unbelieving culture?In this episode of The World View, Alex Kocman sits down with Gabriel “The Waterboy” Rench of the FLF Network for an informal but direct debate over the church, the culture, national repentance, Christian responsibility, and the reign of Christ over every area of life.

Paul moves from what he inherited to what he personally achieved. Listento what he says: "As to the law, a Pharisee; concerning zeal, persecutingthe church; concerning the righteousness which is in the law, blameless." Thesewere not things that were given to Paul. These were things he worked hard toattain. If anyone could have earned a right standing before God throughreligion, dedication, and moral effort, it was Saul of Tarsus. First,notice that Paul said, "As to the law, a Pharisee." ThePharisees were the strictest religious group in Judaism. There were not many ofthem compared to the population of Israel, but they were highly respected fortheir devotion to the Law. The word Pharisee actually means "separatedone." They separated themselves from anything they believed would makethem spiritually unclean. They carefully studied the Scriptures, observedreligious traditions, and sought to obey every detail of the Law. SoPaul was not merely a religious man. He was a religious leader. In Acts 23:6,he boldly declared, "I am a Pharisee, the son of a Pharisee." Hehad studied under the famous Rabbi Gamaliel according to Acts 22:3. Hepossessed the finest religious education available in his day. Yet with allthat learning and all that religious devotion, it could not save him. It ispossible to know the Bible intellectually and still not know Jesus Christpersonally. Many people today know Bible stories, memorize verses, and attendchurch regularly, yet they have never experienced the transforming grace ofGod. Knowledge alone cannot save. Secondly,Paul said, "Concerning zeal, persecuting the church." Thismight seem shocking to us. How could persecuting Christians be considered acredential? But before his conversion, Paul believed Christians were theenemies of God. He thought he was serving God by trying to destroy the church. Acts8:3 tells us that Saul made havoc of the church, entering houses and draggingmen and women off to prison. In Acts 9, he was on his way to Damascus withauthority to arrest believers when he met the risen Christ. In Acts 26:9-11,when he gave his testimony before Agrippa, he said: “I punished them oftenin every synagogue and compelled them to blaspheme. Being exceedingly enragedagainst them, I persecuted them even to foreign cities." Paulwas sincere. He was passionate. He was committed. But he was sincerely wrong. Thisreminds us that sincerity alone is not enough because a person can be sincereand still be lost. A person can be passionate and still be mistaken. The mostimportant question is not how sincere we are. The important question is whetherour faith is based on the truth of Jesus Christ. Today, many people are zealousabout religion, politics, causes, traditions, or philosophies. But zeal withouttruth can lead us far from God. Paul had zeal, but he still needed a Savior. Third,Paul said, "Concerning the righteousness which is in the law,blameless." Notice he did not say sinless. He said blameless. In theeyes of the people around him, Paul lived an exemplary life. No one could pointto some scandalous sin and accuse him of hypocrisy. Outwardly, he appeared tobe everything a religious person should be. If Saul of Tarsus had lived in ourcommunity today, many churches would probably have wanted him to be a deacon, aSunday school teacher, an elder, or a ministry leader. Yet despite all hismorality and religious discipline, he was still lost. Thisis one of the most sobering truths in Scripture. Aperson can be religious and still need salvation. Remember, Jesus said inMatthew 7 that many will come to Him in that day and say, "Lord, Lord,have we not done many wonderful works in Your name?" And Jesus willsay to them, "Depart from Me, you workers of iniquity. I never knewyou." That is sobering. Are you sure—really sure—that you have beenborn again? We need the grace of God and salvation through Christ alone. 

H.W. Brands explains how, in May 1941, Roosevelt declared an "unlimited national emergency," putting American industry and the public mind on a wartime footing. This move escalated the "moral war" against Germany and effectively criminalized dissent, as Roosevelt began labeling his critics "copperheads" and "fifth columnists"—terms implying disloyalty or treason. Lindbergh felt this was a dangerous overreach, noting that his father had been hounded by the Justice Department for similar dissent during World War I. The administration intensified its pressure, with the FBItapping America First Committee phones and British agents attempting to sabotage their gatherings. Roosevelt even misrepresented the Greer incident, claiming a German submarine had fired unprovoked on an American ship, when in fact the Greer was actively hunting the submarine. On September 11, 1941, during a rally in Des Moines, Iowa, a desperate Lindbergh made a fatal rhetorical error. He identified three groups pushing for war: the British, the Rooseveltadministration, and Jewish Americans. Although he stated their sympathies were understandable, his mention of "American Jews" allowed his enemies to brand him an anti-Semite and a "Nazi stooge." Even supporters like Herbert Hoover told him that while his words might be true, he was "wrong to say it" because he had moved himself politically out of bounds. (7)1940

June 14, 2026On June 14, 1775, the Second Continental Congress established the Continental Army, The Battles of Lexington and Concord had made it clear that the British government endangered American liberties, Congress then named Virginia planter George Washington as its commander-in-chief, Defending the country without creating a military that could be used to repress the people was a challenge, The army was overlooked by Congress and funds were not available for food or supplies for the militiamen encamped at Valley Forge, PA, When France signed a treaty with the American states in February 1778, they lent money, material, and men to the cause of American independence, The Treaty of Paris formally ended the war in September 1783, and Congress disbanded the army, Washington stepped aside from military leadership, addressing Congress in December, Painter John Trumbull called his retirement one of the highest moral lessons ever given to the world.  Watch today's recording here: https://www.youtube.com/live/g9TUa1Rwd6U?si=T8_KKcHQZElhpnZ-Get full, free access to Letters from an American here: https://heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/subscribeYou can also find me:Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/hcrichardson.bsky.socialInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/heathercoxrichardson/?hl=enFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/heathercoxrichardson/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@heathercoxrichardson Get full access to Letters from an American at heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/subscribe

2026 isn't just another turn of the nonprofit M&A cycle. The choices leaders make over the next few quarters can decide whether they're steering their own strategy or getting swept into someone else's plan, and that's a very different kind of pressure than “growth for growth's sake.”We sit down with Chris Wolf (COO of Boundless), Rich Yanoski (VP of Corporate Business Development at Merakey), and Stacy DiStefano (CEO of Consulting for Human Services) to unpack what's driving consolidation across mental health, IDD services, autism services, and more.   You'll hear why shrinking your way to stability can backfire, how partners may start evaluating assets instead of mission, and why an outside advisor helps leaders avoid blind spots.Then we get practical about the forces shaping nonprofit sustainability right now: Medicaid uncertainty and HR1-related turbulence, limited funding appetite, and workforce shortages.   We also dig into board governance: what strong boards ask, how to align on strategic fit and organizational readiness, and how to keep the focus on community impact rather than brand symbols. If this conversation helps you think differently about scale, partnerships, or board readiness, subscribe, share with a colleague, and leave a review so more nonprofit leaders can find it.Send us Fan Mail

Can etiquette and faith actually change minds — or just smooth over conflict? Mary Margaret sits down with Alison Cheperdak, etiquette author and former White House staffer, to examine what good manners are really for. From her Irish Catholic upbringing and time in the Trump West Wing, to navigating conversations about abortion and the quiet return of younger women to tradition, Cheperdak argues that etiquette is not about performance but about respect — and that it may be the one thing AI can never replace.

"The new owners of Fender since 2020 are attempting to own the copyright on the Stratocaster body. A German court has taken them part of the way but most experts don't believe it will hold up to scrutiny. Nonetheless, Fender has sent Cease and Desist letters to multiple guitar makers telling them to stop production, call back orders and destroy stock. Fender may have just committed brand suicide because history is not on their side."

Chosen by Patreon supporter Helen, Indecent Proposal is exactly the sort of glossy 90s adult drama that makes perfect VHS Strikes Back territory: stylish, morally messy, wildly debatable, and absolutely guaranteed to make everyone in the room ask what they would do for one million dollars. Directed by Adrian Lyne, the film arrived in 1993 at the peak of Hollywood's obsession with erotic thrillers and high-stakes relationship dramas, when a soft-focus lens, a luxurious wardrobe, and a deeply questionable premise could still become a major box office event. Based on Jack Engelhard's 1988 novel, it starred Robert Redford, Demi Moore, and Woody Harrelson, with a screenplay by Amy Holden Jones and a typically elegant score from John Barry.Filming began in Las Vegas in June 1992 before moving to Southern California, with locations including Echo Park and a Santa Barbara mansion used for John Gage's home. The film became a major commercial hit, earning around $266.6 million worldwide against a reported $38 million budget, despite mixed-to-negative reviews and a premise that caused plenty of debate. It also became a pop culture talking point almost instantly, inspiring arguments about marriage, money, consent, class, and whether Robert Redford could make absolutely anything sound sophisticated, even a financial transaction that should really have involved several lawyers and a long walk outside.TRAILER GUY PLOT SYNOPSISThey were young. They were in love. They had dreams, debts, and the sort of architectural ambitions that scream, “we are one recession away from disaster.”But in the neon heart of Las Vegas, one night changes everything. A billionaire stranger enters their lives with charm, confidence, and a cheque book big enough to turn romance into a boardroom negotiation.FUN FACTSIndecent Proposal was directed by Adrian Lyne, who had already become the king of stylish relationship chaos with films like Fatal Attraction and 9½ Weeks.The film was adapted from Jack Engelhard's novel, although the screen version softened and reshaped elements of the original story for mainstream Hollywood audiences.Robert Redford's casting gave the film an unusual edge, because billionaire John Gage had to feel charming enough to be believable, but morally questionable enough to make everyone deeply uncomfortable.Demi Moore was one of the biggest stars of the early 90s, and this film landed during the same era that cemented her as a major box office name.Woody Harrelson was still best known to many viewers for Cheers, making his role as a financially desperate husband a notable move into more dramatic film work.The film's central “one million dollars for one night” premise became one of the most talked-about movie hooks of the decade.Billy Bob Thornton has a small role in the film, appearing before he became widely known as a major Hollywood name.The movie features appearances from Sheena Easton and Herbie Hancock, adding a bit of real-world glamour to the already very shiny 90s atmosphere.SUPPORT THE SHOW If you enjoy the show and would like to support us, we have a Patreon ⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠.

What does it take to rehumanize our common life in a moment of cultural fragility, institutional collapse, and crisis of trust? Recorded at the Washington National Cathedral for Comment magazine's inaugural Understory Festival, this roundtable asks how culture, beauty, and faith might rehumanize a fractured public life. Mark Labberton is joined by Comment editor-in-chief Anne Snyder, The Sacred host Elizabeth Oldfield, Washington Post columnist Shadi Hamid, and Cardus co-founder Ray Pennings. "It is actually possible to have deep roots and wide open arms." In this episode, the panel reflects on building a gathering rooted in hope and Christian humanism rather than argument alone. They discuss why and how politics is downstream from culture, the role of religion in the public square, the limits of purely cerebral ways of knowing, toxic positivity versus honest hope, pluralism with deep roots, the beauty of "groaning," and learning to die well. Episode Highlights "It is actually possible to have deep roots and wide open arms."—Anne Snyder "Naturally as a Muslim, I don't agree with Christianity's truth claims, but that doesn't mean that I can't appreciate the beauty of Christianity."—Shadi Hamid "The word that's been coming to me this whole festival is and."—Elizabeth Oldfield "Politics is downstream from culture."—Ray Pennings "We're all made to worship, it's just a question of what we worship."—Shadi Hamid About the Guests Anne Snyder is editor-in-chief of Comment, a magazine published by Cardus, and convener of the Understory Festival. She hosts The Whole Person Revolution podcast and wrote The Fabric of Character. Elizabeth Oldfield hosts The Sacred podcast, is a former director of UK think tank Theos, and author of Fully Alive: Tending to the Soul in Turbulent Times. Shadi Hamid is a Washington Post columnist, senior fellow at Georgetown's Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding, co-host of Zealots at the Gate, and author of The Case for American Power.
