A. Becauses was at his church small group, and we did our sort of discussion reflection exercise. At the end, somebody said, we should pray for ukrane. And i actually wanted to pray a prayer of complaint because one of my heroes this past week, paul farmer, died of a sudden cardiac event. But it struck me that as a church, we've actually not taught our people how to think about these issues. There's an underlying theological vacuum that our meandering and mumbly prayers are actually exposing.
David and Curtis talk to Tish Harrison Warren, an author, Anglican priest, and writer for The New York Times. Their conversation about prayer gets very real, as they first talk about prayer in wartime. Then they move back to the American cultural struggles, and discuss the disturbing tendency to compare peace to war and the toxic effect on our lives and hearts.
