Jesus and John Wayne: w/ Kristin Kobes Du Mez

January 31, 2021 by David Meigs

Ep. 110 is here and we are star struck. It’s not every day you have the chance to sit down and chat through a mind-blowing book with the author. Kristin Du Mez is a professor of History, author and charming guest. She wrote the critically acclaimed novel Jesus and John Wayne: How White Evangelicals Corrupted a Faith and Fractured a Nation. She is kind, funny and gives us some thorough answers to questions like “how did we get here” and “how can evangelicals grow post Donald Trump”.

Please buy her book today! We listened to it on audible, but she has a second printing of it available now where you get books. She would love to connect via twitter as well.

White Privilege Continued (Episode 18)

May 29, 2017 by David Meigs

James, David and Brad spend a week contemplating episode 17 on white privilege with Phil Butler and dive deeper. If privilege is invisible how do we put our finger on it? We talk about David's experience with the "Privilege Walk" activity in school, and how the act ignited a serious change in his world view of power dynamics in this country. Also what were we not taught in school about the history of race in this country? Who decided whether African Americans received property, jobs etc. and access to education?
