I’m very excited to announce that the chaplaincy I work for, the Episcopal Church at Yale, is going to be hosting (along with our partners, Luther House at Yale and the University Church) a Theological Coffeehouse Discussion on the role of faith in politics.  Here is the event poster:

State Senator Roy Herron has an M.Div. and a J.D. from Vanderbilt University and has served as an attorney and a Methodist minister.  He has also served in the Tennessee State Legislature (where, coincidentally, he currently represents my parents) for 26 years.  Here is a link to his book God and Politics:  How Can a Christian Be in Politics?  If you are going to be in the New Haven area on October 15 and are interested in joining us, here is a link to the Facebook event with more information!
