Kaitlyn Schiess - The Liturgy of Politics: Spiritual Formation for the Sake of Our Neighbor  
Podcast: Talkin‘ Politics & Religion Without Killin‘ Each Other
Published On: Mon Apr 18 2022
Description: Kaitlyn Schiess is a writer and author who’s studying for her doctorate in political theology, ethics and biblical interpretation at Duke Divinity School and has earned her ThM in systematic theology from Dallas Theological Seminary. In 2020, Kaitlyn’s book The Liturgy of Politics: Spiritual Formation for the Sake of Our Neighbor created quite a stir. She has also written about theology, politics, and culture in outlets such as Christianity Today, The New York Times, Sojourners, several other national publications and is rather prolific on Twitter! We cover a lot of ground in this conversation. Part of Kaitlyn's journey that is unique is that not a lot of people start out at Liberty Univ. for undergrad and then end up at Duke Divinity for their doctoral work. It was interesting to hear Kaitlyn's thoughts about where many of her Liberty classmates stand in terms of politics and theology today. We also talked about "What story am I buying into?" and how our paradigms affect how we interpret what's happening in the world. We went on to assess some of the problems that ail our culture in the church and more broadly, and we explore prescriptions of how we might be able to move forward. https://kaitlynschiess.com/ https://twitter.com/KaitlynSchiess https://www.instagram.com/kaitlynschiess/ https://www.indiebound.org/book/9780830848300
