On this episode of the podcast, we talk with Kaitlyn Schiess about her book The Ballot and The Bible: How Scripture Has Been Used And Abused in American Politics and Where We Go from Here. Among the topics we discuss:
- Distinguishing between better and worse ways of reading ourselves into the biblical story
- Uniquely American habits of reading the nation into the biblical story, taking every promise or command as directed towards national life.
- Worries about the wide range of political perspectives that are credited to the Bible
- What we might learn from comparing presidents' speeches at the National Prayer breakfast
- What it means to cite Scripture in a diverse, religiously pluralistic society
- The faithful use of politics in the pulpit and in public life
