S1 Ep20: #InTheSpiritOfHolyWeek

Impolite Company

This week Amy is joined by guest co-host Jack Jenkins, superstar religion journalist and national reporter for Religion News Service.

We discuss Jack's reporting on the involvement of religious groups in anti-gun-violence demonstrations, often at the urging of young members in their congregations. Many of them are fed up with the oft-heard dodge that politics shouldn't be brought into religion. Especially since they've watched generations of conservative Christians do exactly that.

We also have fun with some recent examples of journalists and other public figures answering religious conservatives with some biblical knowledge of their own.

And we consider the impact young evangelicals are having on Christian college campuses, where out LGBTQ students are a presence.
