    Summary

    Join us for a conversation that takes a surprising but enjoyable turn into church history, as we discuss Chapter 6 "The Magic of the Market: the hermeneutics of small government" and Chapter 7 "The Late Great United States: biblical eschatology in the Cold War.

    No panda references, but we do find ourselves wondering if the heavenly city might be depicted as a Borg cube.

    Summary

    We look in this episode at Schiess' chapter on the civil rights movement, and discuss in particular the use of the Christian message in social issues, and the death of Christendom. We also discuss whether the career of "panda pastor" is more or less justified than the belief that America is a Christian nation.

  • The Ballot and the Bible Ep. 2 -- The Use of Scripture in Slavery and in Social Gospel
    2024/10/18

    Send us a text

    Summary

    In this episode, we look at chapters 3 and 4, in which Schiess looks at the use of scripture in both the defense of American slavery and in the social gospel. We look at how we use the stories of scripture to form our identities, where that can fall short and be misused. We talk about how easy it is to find what one wants to find in scripture, as well as the ways in which deep engagement with scripture tends to lead people to God's heart for reconciliation and liberation.
