An Epistle of Tony to the Church at Newsmax: Christianity and Politics (#018)

Send a textWe diverge from our usual discussion about music to touch on the intersection of Christian faith and politics. Using Lee C Camp's recent book Scandalous Witness  as a starting point, we discuss the various attempts by Christian religious movements to co-opt U.S. politics from the left and the right, and try to articulate a proper Christian response to political action in a pluralistic, secular democracy.Sounds like fun doesn't it? We think so..Bands/ Artists discussed:Sean FeuchtDanny GokeyLost DogsSwirling EddiesReferences:Podcast Episode: Faith For Normal People - Lee C CampBook: Scandalous Witness - A Little Political Manifesto for Christians by Lee C CampShort Film: For Our DaughtersGod Gave Rock & Roll To You is a podcast exploring the Christian rock subculture of the late 20th century, hosted by Matt Beaton with co-hosts Doug Dickens and Tony Hormillosa. We are friends who each grew up in a distinct version of this world, and we want to discuss what it was, where it came from, and what it turned into. We’ll be taking many side roads along the way, while listening to some of the best (and worst) music of the era..
