Scott Rae: So Sean, really delighted to be able to talk about this just together with the two of us. She's a very respected historian, but has come out with a very controversial topic that we want to explore, we want to see, we want to look both at the merits and the demerits of the book and take an honest and we hope fair assessment of it to recognize this contributions, what she got right and where we would take issue with it. And has published in a variety of national publications as well. She's widely published, has written a number of other things having to do with women and the gospel. The author's Kristin Kobes Du Mez, she's a historian at Calvin University. And the subtitle I think is particularly revealing How White Evangelicals Corrupted a Faith and Fractured a Nation.

Scott Rae: Hey, welcome to our conversation today with Sean and me.
