[Secondhand Religion @SecondhandReli1]

"Religion by its very nature is not original, but rather derived, inherited, passed on and received, and passed on again. We are where we are because of others, and by God's grace others, because of us, will be where they are to be." - Peter J. Gomes, Secondhand Religion

"One of the things I appreciated most about the dialogue was seeing how the Wesleys' hymnody was a source of theology." -Fr Drew Christiansen

Hear more about how much the Catholic Church values the Methodist hymn tradition by watching our latest episode!

Just finished filming a @SecondhandReli1 video with @BishopDavidT @kimmab and Fr. Drew Christiansen about the UMC/USCCB - Methodist/Catholic dialogue. It was such a rich conversation! I can’t wait for you to see it. #UMC #USCCB #ecumenical #Catholic #Methodist

[Ryan N. Danker @RyanNDanker]

Excited to plan for an upcoming @SecondhandReli1 video conversation with the Catholic members of the United Methodist/Roman Catholic Dialogue. We film on St. Patrick's Day! Stay tuned.

We’ve actually had some negative reactions this one. So see it for yourself! Christians and Political Engagement with @SecondhandReli1

[Secondhand Religion @SecondhandReli1]

It seems Christians have lost the ability to engage in civil discourse over politics. How might we do better? Why should we be concerned with politics in the first place? Hear responses to these questions and more in our latest episode.

[Marcus Walker @WalkerMarcus]

Now this was GREAT fun - especially going toe to toe with that great opponent of "the Constantinian Church"* Stanley Hauerwass (except we actually got on very well and avoided any serious fireworks, which makes for much less exciting television).

*which I love.

[Secondhand Religion @SecondhandReli1]

How should Christianity influence political engagement in the society? What role do Christians have in politics? Check out this conversation with @RyanNDanker @CherieHarder @turtology @WalkerMarcus and Stanley Hauerwas.
