Email us: Will@faithfulpoliticspodcast.comOn this episode of Faithful Politics, we had the privilege of hosting Diana Florence, a former Manhattan Assistant DA Prosecutor, to shed light on the maze of recent indictments and legal controversies in Trump World. At the forefront is the superseding indictment, related to the Florida document case, a replacement or addition to the original indictment which can be accessed here.We touched upon Judge Aileen Cannon's past errors, including her forgetfulness to swear in a jury pool and multiple mistakes in a trial shortly after being designated for Trump's charges. Our guest weighed in on the potential implications of such missteps and the role of Cannon in the upcoming trials. Then we delved deep into the January 6th indictment, available here. With Diana's expertise, we parsed through the various counts against Trump, ranging from conspiracy to defraud the United States to obstruction of official proceedings.We also talked about potential defenses for Trump, challenges Jack Smith might face in proving the case, and the intricacies of co-conspirator charges. Out of all punditry about Trump's numerous indictments we actually talked about one of the most important parts of his trial, the jury.Jury selection, often overlooked in public discourse, became a focal point of our conversation. With Trump's polarizing nature, the challenge of achieving an unbiased jury was a thought-provoking segment. Lastly, we took questions from our keen audience. Discussions ranged from the curious timing of Trump's indictments in relation to Hunter Biden's court revelations to comparisons between Trump's actions and the email controversy surrounding Hillary Clinton.

Whitaker looks to the Bible as a guide to interpreting the Bible, and her findings breathe new life into our understanding and use of Scripture. As it turns out, the uses of Scripture within Scripture are flexible, open to frequent reinterpretation, and rarely literal.For instance, Ezra and Nehemiah reinterpret laws about whether Jews can marry foreigners in the wake of the Babylonian exile. Their contradiction of earlier traditions found in Deuteronomic law do not invalidate Scripture but rather represent its diverse applications for the prophets’ specific situations. In the Gospel of Matthew, Jesus presents a more demanding interpretation of Mosaic law in the Sermon on the Mount, while in Mark’s Gospel he all but ignores its prohibition of working on the Sabbath. Yet the common ethos of the two gospels prioritizes compassion over legalism.Ultimately, Whitaker ascertains one definitive characteristic of inner-biblical interpretation: love. After all, the Old Testament passage most frequently quoted in the New Testament is Leviticus 19:18: “Love thy neighbor.” Thus, Whitaker proposes a hermeneutic of love—a litmus test for the validity of a scriptural interpretation measured in charity. Ideal for any devoted reader of the Bible, Even the Devil Quotes Scripture opens our eyes to the Bible as a living, loving gift of God’s unfolding revelation.Buy the Book: https://a.co/d/iRhzTqXGuest Bio: Robyn Whitaker is Senior Lecturer in New Testament at Pilgrim Theological College, at the University of Divinity.

Taylor, the author of the thought-provoking book, "A Body of Praise". We take a deep dive into the complex subject of the significance of our physical bodies in the context of corporate worship. Taylor's book is a powerful testament against the belief that our bodies are at best negligible and at worst a hindrance in worship. He argues passionately that our bodies are crucial, offering what only they can in worship, and aiding in the formation of Christlikeness within us.Taylor's rich insights, drawn from a range of sources including the Bible, church history, and theology, provide listeners with a comprehensive understanding of the role and purpose of our physical bodies in worship. He goes a step further by integrating unique perspectives from the arts and sciences, ethics, and spiritual formation, broadening our understanding of our physicality in worship.One of the key arguments in Taylor's book is the vital role of our postures, gestures, and movements in worship, asserting their significant contribution to our spiritual formation. He also places great emphasis on the crucial role of our senses - sight, scent, sound, taste, and touch - in worship and how engaging these senses can profoundly enrich our worship experiences.Taylor further explores the importance of both spontaneous and prescriptive activities in shaping us during worship. Our conversation wraps up with a reaffirmation of the importance of a body that is fully alive in the praise of God. This episode promises to be an enlightening journey that may compel you to reevaluate your own engagement and perception of your body in worship. Join us as we navigate this enriching conversation, which is sure to deepen your understanding and reshape your worship experience.Buy his book: https://a.co/d/2Gd8jk8Guest Bio:Born in Guatemala City, W.

Email us: Will@faithfulpoliticspodcast.comIn this  episode we delve into the intriguing world of faith and politics, embracing the complexities and inconsistencies that often arise when these two domains intersect. Join our host Josh as he engages in a thought-provoking conversation with special guest Cornelius "Neal" Plantinga, exploring the stories of diverse individuals and their unique approaches to faith.🗣️ Engaging with Personal Narratives:Josh and Neal kick off the episode by emphasizing the importance of understanding the personal stories of people with varying beliefs. They explore how different individuals come to their faith convictions through distinct journeys. Some may have always believed in God, while others, like Chuck Colson, discovered faith through transformative experiences and diligent research. By understanding the "how" behind their beliefs, we gain deeper insights into their perspectives.💡 The Challenge of Inconsistencies:As the conversation unfolds, Neal candidly shares how the Scriptures often present challenging passages that might seem inconsistent or incongruent with reality. They particularly explore Psalm 91, which appears to promise protection to believers, yet life doesn't always align with this promise. Neal encourages deeper study and thoughtful reflection to grasp the profound messages that may not be evident at first glance.🤝 Engaging with Atheists and Muslims:Josh and Neal delve into the delicate art of engaging with atheists and Muslims about their beliefs. For atheists, Neal suggests acknowledging their skepticism while gently pointing out the deeper layers of Scripture that go beyond surface interpretations. When interacting with Muslims, they stress the importance of respectful dialogue, understanding the shared Abrahamic faith, and witnessing to what makes Christianity compelling.📚 Faith and Education:The duo dives into the misconception that education might lead to a loss of faith. Neal shares inspiring examples of highly educated Christian figures like Augustine, Calvin, and Luther, whose faith deepened with knowledge. Education, when approached with humility and openness, can lead t Support the show🎧 Want to learn more about Faithful Politics, get in touch with the hosts, or suggest a future guest?👉 Visit our website: faithfulpoliticspodcast.com 📚 Check out our Bookstore – Featuring titles from our amazing guests:faithfulpoliticspodcast.com/bookstore ❤️ Support the show – Help us keep the conversation going:donorbox.org/faithful-politics-podcast 📩 Reach out to us: Faithful Host, Josh Burtram: Josh@faithfulpolitics.com Political Host, Will Wright: Will@faithfulpolitics.com 📱 Follow & connect with us: Twitter/X: @FaithfulPolitik Instagram: faithful_politics Facebook: FaithfulPoliticsPodcast LinkedIn: faithfulpolitics 📰 Subscribe to our Substack for behind-the-scenes content:faithfulpolitics.substack.com 📅 RSVP for upcoming live events:Chec...

Email us: Will@faithfulpoliticspodcast.comPrepare to confront a hard truth: the United States, a beacon of freedom and justice to many, shockingly ranks 6th in global state executions, even outpacing Pakistan. As we continue our "March for Life" series this week, we delve deep into the labyrinth of this disconcerting fact, guided by the insights of eminent constitutional law expert, Professor Corinna Lain.Public perception often leads us to associate state executions with countries like China, Saudi Arabia, or Iran - nations often criticized for their human rights records. However, the reality is starkly different and might be hard to swallow. America, often considered a progressive force globally, finds itself uncomfortably close to these nations when it comes to one of the most contentious aspects of its justice system - capital punishment.The issue of capital punishment is complex and multifaceted. At its core, it's a system that ends lives, deemed by many as an incredibly brutal, even barbaric, form of punishment. It strikes a direct blow at our fundamental human rights, the right to life being paramount among them.Moreover, it raises critical questions about the state's role and the boundaries of its power: How far should the state go in its pursuit of justice? Does it have the right to take away life - the very thing it is supposed to protect?Besides the ethical and moral questions, there is also the issue of its effectiveness as a deterrent to crime. Numerous studies have shown little to no conclusive evidence supporting the argument that capital punishment deters crime more effectively than other forms of punishment. Is it, then, not a primitive form of justice, obsolete in the modern era?Join us as we navigate this complicated, often uncomfortable topic, breaking it down to its essence, and prompting you to question its place in our justice system. This enlightening conversation with Professor Lain simplifies the intricacies of capital punishment, inviting you to critically evaluate the efficacy and morality of this form of criminal justice.You won't leave this episode without learning something new and profound.

Email us: Will@faithfulpoliticspodcast.comIn this riveting episode, we traverse the complex landscape of evangelicalism, an often misunderstood and hotly debated religious identity. Join us as Isaac Sharp, a prominent scholar of religion and acclaimed author, unravels the intricacies of this profound topic.Our conversation initiates with Isaac defining evangelicalism. He emphasizes its multifaceted nature, elaborating on how it's perceived differently by secular scholars, historians, journalists, theologians, and evangelicals themselves. Isaac further highlights how evangelicalism transcends denominational boundaries within Protestantism, reinforcing its status as a more conservative form of American Protestantism.In the absence of a universally accepted definition, the term 'evangelical' is perpetually negotiable. This leads to intriguing debates around the authenticity of one's evangelical identity. In the quest for understanding evangelicalism, Isaac introduces us to the "Bebbington quadrilateral," a four-pronged definition of evangelicalism focusing on the cross, a high regard for the Bible, individual conversion, and an evangelistic or activist impulse.However, the distinctions between sociological and theological definitions of evangelicalism can paint diverse pictures of this religious group. Isaac reflects on how these differing perspectives can influence our understanding of the evangelical community. The episode concludes with a profound discussion on the complex relationship between evangelicalism and race, showcasing how historical contexts and racial dynamics intersect with faith identities.#Evangelicalism #Religion #Protestantism #BebbingtonQuadrilateral #FaithIdentity #TheologicalPerspectives #ReligiousScholarship #AmericanReligion #IsaacSharpBuy the book: https://a.co/d/a8NnxFpGuest Bio:Isaac B.

Email us: Will@faithfulpoliticspodcast.comCritical Race Theory (CRT) has become a lightning rod in American politics and evangelical Christianity. Our guests this week talk about it in their new book, Christianity and Critical Race Theory: A Faithful and Constructive Conversation. This book offers a critical but constructive and sympathetic introduction to CRT written from a perspective rooted in Scripture and Christian theology. Robert Chao Romero and Jeff Liou take us beyond the caricatures and misinformation to consider how CRT can be an analytical tool to help us understand persistent inequality and injustice--and to see that Christians and churches working for racial justice engage CRT in faithful and constructive ways.The authors explore aspects of CRT that resonate with well-trod Christian doctrine but also aspects that challenge or are corrected by Christian theology. They also address the controversial connection that critics see between CRT and Marxism. Their aim is to offer objective analysis and critique that go beyond the debates about social identity and the culture wars and aid those who are engaging the issues in Christian life and ministry. The book includes reflection/discussion questions, exercises, a glossary of key CRT terms, and suggested readings, making it helpful for students or small groups.Buy the book: https://a.co/d/0LguhgMAbout the Authors:Rev.
