Is there a better way to think and talk about religious freedom in America that doesn’t buy into political extremes?
Join hosts Alan Reinach - executive director of the Church-State Council who has been litigating religious liberty cases for nearly 40 years - and Bettina Krause - editor of Liberty Magazine, which has been at the forefront of religious liberty conversations since 1906 - as they interview experts in law politics, or faith to tackle tough religious freedom questions - not just from the courts, but from the culture.
