Are You There, God? w. Krista Tippett

America allegedly observes a separation of church and state, but if you’ve bought anything with a U.S. dollar, pledged allegiance to the flag, or just lived through an election season, you know it’s more complicated than that. In this episode, Sarah talks with On Being host Krista Tippett about her own religious journey, her “hellfire and brimstone” grandfather, and the past, present, and uncertain future of religion and politics. (“I do not think that one Tuesday in November is the only day that is going to matter in terms of how we turn out,” she says.) Whether you’re mid crisis-of-faith or you’ve never given it much thought, this conversation dives into the deeply personal role faith plays in all our lives—and might even make you start smiling at strangers.
