Description
We cover a lot of ground in this one folks. You may know Frank Schaeffer as the son of famed evangelical author Francis Schaeffer, but since helping his father found the religious right in America (we're not kidding), Frank has had a dramatic personal transformation and a fascinating career. We talk with him about his new book Fall in Love, Have Children, Stay Put, Save the Planet, Be Happy. The conversation covers Frank's role in abortion becoming the cause célèbre of the American evangelical establishment, his relationship with his parents and other famous evangelical leaders of recent decades, what a family values agenda would actually look like, how corporate tech culture is killing people's ability to be happy, and how understanding human evolution can help. Frank is raw, honest, and deliciously brash. He's also got a potty mouth, so be advised if you're listening with children.Frank's own podcast, In Conversation... with Frank Schaeffer, can be found here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/in-conversation-with-frank-schaeffer/id1570357787The beer we taste in this episode is Terror Dome from Saint Errant Brewing.Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/apastorandaphilosopher)
