Shepards for Sale? (Episode 14)

In this episode, we dive into the complex intersections of faith and politics. We unpack Kamala Harris's claim of being raised as a Baptist and her efforts to connect with religious voters, including the use of Billy Graham in political ads. We also examine how these religious movements critique Donald Trump for his famous remark about never confessing his sins.

Our discussion takes a critical look at Megan Basham’s provocative article "Shepherds For Sale," which questions whether religious leaders are compromising their faith for political gain. From the biblical mandate to care for “the least of these” to the call to “love thy neighbor,” this episode wrestles with how religious values are being interpreted and utilized in today’s political landscape. Join us for a thought-provoking conversation on the evolving role of faith in American politics
