Back to EpisodesEpisode 515: America After Roe & Pursuing Shalom with Amy Sherman
Published 3 years, 11 months ago
Description
Phil and Kaitlyn are finally back from (separate) trips to Europe, but they're returning to a very different America. The Supreme Court has officially overturned Roe and ended the Constitutional right to abortion. What's good about the decision? What's concerning? And why is it increasingly unacceptable to have a nuanced understanding of this issue? Then, a new article by Ronald Brownstein says America's relative unity in the 20th century was an anomaly, and the country may be heading toward a permanent split. Can the union be saved?
Skye then talked to Amy Sherman, the author of our Holy Post Book Club selection, "Agents of Flourishing: Pursuing Shalom in Every Corner of Society." Sherman says we need a larger, more biblical vision of God's redemption, and we must recapture what it means for Christ's people to be a "royal priesthood" in parts of the culture often overlooked by the church. Plus, Phil's European report includes wild horses, naked Dutch men, and a frustrating lack of Diet Coke.
