John offers a clear, historically grounded, and theologically informed case for why religious liberty is essential to the American experiment—and why Christians should champion it not merely for themselves, but for everyone.We explore the intellectual roots of religious freedom, how conservative thinkers have approached the topic, and why protecting conscience is a distinctly Christian act of neighbor love. John also sheds light on current cultural debates, misconceptions about the First Amendment, and what a principled commitment to pluralism should look like for believers today.This thoughtful conversation helps us understand the past, navigate the present, and prepare for a future in which religious freedom must be intentionally preserved.Youtube - https://youtu.be/_2Ib1tvmZp4Audio - https://andymilleriii.com/media/podcastApple -  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/more-to-the-story-with-dr-andy-miller/id1569988895?uo=4Find Dr. Wilsey’s book here - https://a.co/d/05Ouchm4If you are interested in learning more about my two full-length video-accompanied courses, Contender: Going Deeper in the Book of Jude andHeaven and Other Destinations: A Biblical Journey Beyond this World , visit andymilleriii.com/coursesAnd don’t forget about my most recent book, Contender, which is available on Amazon! Five Steps to Deeper Teaching and Preaching - Recently, I updated this PDF document and added a 45-minute teaching video with slides, explaining this tool.
