Our Current Program

Religion

Since his selection as leader of the Catholic church, Pope Francis has fascinated the world with his down-to-earth style as he carves out his particular trademark of simplicity and humility. Millions of Catholics are re-energized about their faith – but can the Church – or organized religion – remain relevant? Or is it already dysfunctional? How can people who are searching for meaning in their lives find their way through an often muddled concept of God? And is there any way we can “agree to disagree” on some of the points of faith that have driven a wedge between people everywhere for far too long? 

On our program for May, three extraordinary, knowledgeable guests who represent the Judeo-Christian tradition, offer their perspectives. LISTEN NOW 

 

Dr. Robin Meyers is the Senior Minister of the Mayflower Congregational United Church of Christ and an award-winning commentator for National Public Radio; Father Tim Luschen is the pastor of St. Charles Borromeo Catholic Church in Oklahoma City and an active community organizer for families; and Rabbi Vered Harris is the spiritual leader of the Temple B’nai Israel in Oklahoma City.
