Description

As a professor of English, Dr. Prior argues that reading both shapes character and requires character, including patience, prudence, and love. Karen offer Christian perspectives on events for the New York Times and the Atlantic, taking up the role of public theologian. Although she never sought one, she has a “platform” – and explains why it is ill-advised to seek a platform.

This podcast seeks to fire the imagination of Christians who long to practice their faith at work. The podcast features interviews of people who try to practice their faith at work. Guests may be famous or unknown. They may be very successful, quietly faithful, or instructive in their woes. We typically interview mature Christians, but there are exceptions. The common thread is a desire to live by one’s faith and convictions. Guests include professional athletes, award-winning broadcasters, a librarian, a surgeon, a Harvard-educated opioid addict, politicians, and more.
