Episode 108 - Teaching in the Wake of Jan. 6: Ben Sanders
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
The challenge of discussing contested ideas is not the threat of personal offense, but the likelihood of continued violence and oppression in the wider society. What does it take to foster life-orienting discussions which generatively reflect upon the insurrection, the quarantine, and the BLM?

Dr. Nancy Lynne Westfield hosts Dr. Ben Sanders (Eden Theological Seminary).
