Christian Author to discuss controversial new work

Muskegon Community College (MCC) lecture series continues as the Department of Social Sciences welcomes author and Christian Ethicist Dr. David Gushee on campus March 14 at 6:00 PM in the Sevenson Center, room 1300, to discuss his new work, Defending Democracy from its Christian Enemies. The lecture is free and open to the public.

Gushee’s new publication examines the intricate relationship between religion and contemporary politics, while questioning the apprehension among certain segments of American Christians towards societal changes over the past five decades. His lasted work, meanwhile, explores the threat authoritarian reactionary Christianity poses on the democratic fabric of society.
