In this episode, conservative host Debbee Hancock and liberal host Arielle Goren discuss the complicated relationship between faith and politics. Debbee shares her personal faith journey from a hyper-prescriptive conservative church culture to embracing a faith rooted in grace, love, and humility—and how these values  challenge both political extremes' tendency to legislate morality. Debbee warns of the dangerous consequences of injecting politics into religion and how she believes faith should play a role in politics.
