About the video:
Evangelical Christianity has long defined the landscape of American political consciousness, especially in the Republican right. In this episode, I am joined by prominent Christian theologian Prof. David Gushee to talk about post-Evangelical Christianity, a movement which pushes back against many of the trends in Evangelical Christianity, yet also sharing many sympathies with it. Prof. Gushee is one of the foremost scholars in this movement and it is great to have him join us for this discussion.
