Season 2

Episode 3
Summary
We look in this episode at Schiess' chapter on the civil rights movement, and discuss in particular the use of the Christian message in social issues, and the death of Christendom. We also discuss whether the career of "panda pastor" is more or less justified than the belief that America is a Christian nation.
