Rebecca Glazier: Religion Can Help Solve Political Polarization
Description

Guest Host: Greg Skordas

In an era of increasing political polarization, an unexpected beacon of hope has emerged: places of worship. Recent research suggests that religious congregations may serve as crucial meeting grounds where people of differing political views can interact, collaborate, and see each other's humanity beyond partisan labels. This unique role of faith communities offers a promising avenue for bridging the widening divides in our society. By fostering environments where shared faith and community service take precedence over political differences, religious institutions may hold a key to reinvigorating civil discourse and strengthening the fabric of our democracy. Dr. Rebecca Glazier from the University of Arkansas joins the show.
