Show notes:
In the first segment, our panelists discuss new U.S. visa restrictions targeting individuals accused of supporting violations of religious freedom, with special attention to violence against Christians in Nigeria and elsewhere. The conversation examines whether diplomatic pressure can protect persecuted believers and how America should respond to global attacks on faith communities.
In the second segment of the show, we explore the court case Winder v. United States. The discussion centers on whether courts can divide a military chaplain’s pastoral counseling into secular and religious parts. Panelists examine chaplain confidentiality, religious liberty, and how the ruling could affect spiritual care for service members in crisis.
About the Show: Faith and Politics is a show dedicated to discussing issues surrounding the intersection of Church, State and politics and the examination of whether you are allowing your faith to shape your politics or your politics starting to shape your faith. What do you do when God and government come face to face?
