#94: Abortion, politics and God (with Maija Puddle)
“God isn’t a single issue God. He cares not only about unborn babies but everyone: those who are sick, those who don’t know where their next meal is coming from, the elderly and alone, children separated from their parents, those struggling to access healthcare or just clean water, those working 3 jobs because none of them pays benefits. Everyone.”
This week we welcome the most specialist guest ever, Maija Puddle, my better half! Maija’s undergrad was in Political Science specializing in Public Policy and her masters’ thesis (in development and cooperation) was on power and language. So in the aftermath of the US election, Maija and I had an in-depth discussion on abortion, democracy, representation, the dangers of spiritualizing politics, and how God does and doesn’t work within society to bring about change. Expect hope, fire and lots of love.
