Ep. 22 – Reverend Nicholas Beasley | "If God is so great and powerful, why do we suffer?"
Please tune into this engaging and insightful episode as I welcome Reverend Nicholas Beasley, the distinguished rector at St. John's Episcopal Church in Columbia, SC. With a Ph.D. from Vanderbilt University in History, Reverend Beasley's expertise spans religion in early America, Christianity in early modern Europe, and the Atlantic World. His journey includes a Master's in Divinity from Yale University and a Bachelor's in European History from The University of the South. A Phi Beta Kappa member, Reverend Beasley is a beacon of wisdom and selflessness, serving as a cherished role model. In this episode, I explore the fascinating intersections of history and faith, guided by Reverend Beasley's profound insights. I am very grateful to have had the time to sit down with Reverend Beasley; I hope you enjoy this discussion as much as I had.
