Episode 28: Religious Extremism (with Doug Pratt)

This might seem like a remote possibility for the New Zealand church, but in a rapidly changing society, we can’t afford to be complacent.  Richard interviews a world-leading expert on the topic, Doug Pratt, about religious extremism, how to spot it, and what to do if someone you know starts flirting with taking their faith to violent extremes.
