What does it mean to have a public witness to Jesus Christ? Daniel Hill brings clarity to this question by drawing on the lives of three key abolitionists—David Ruggles, Maria W. Stewart, and William Still—figures often recognized more for their political or philosophical contributions than their spiritual convictions. Hill shows how their Christian faith shaped their public engagement, offering the church a compelling model for faithful presence today.

Joe Rigney’s recent work, The Sin of Empathy, explores how abuse can occur when we neglect the reality of objective truth in our efforts to sympathize with others. I enjoyed this conversation with Joe and appreciate the way he challenges us to think more deeply about how words like empathy are used in our culture. Toward the end of the podcast, Joe and I have a frank discussion about women in ministry—a conversation I believe was mutually beneficial.

I had a blast talking with Leah Payne about her research—actually, her extensive research—on the phenomenon of contemporary Christian music. Those who grew up in 1990s Christian culture will find plenty in her study that resonates with their own experiences. That was certainly true for me as I read Leah’s book and spoke with her for this podcast. We had a great time in our conversation, taking a trip down memory lane and reflecting on the theological tension between ministering to Christian audiences and the inevitable challenges of operating within a commercial industry.
