About this sermon
A new book examines the relationship between US politics and the Bible. "The Bible and the Ballot" examines ways in which sacred scripture has been used correctly and misused in American politics and daily life. Examples include the role the Bible played in the Civil Rights movements and in the Cold War against the Soviet Union. The author of "The Ballot and the Bible," Kaitlyn Schiess, a student at Duke Divinity School, joins to share what gave her the idea to study this topic and write a book about it. Schiess tells us what some of the ways are in which the Bible has been used effectively and correctly in US politics. She discusses some of the ways in which Bible quotes have been used or taken out of context. Looking ahead to the 2024 campaign, Schiess explains whether we are seeing candidates who already are turning to Bible passages in their campaigns. She fills us in on where people can buy her book if they are interested. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
