Saddleback Church in California is best known for its pastor, Rick Warren, author of The Purpose Driven Life. But it’s Rick’s wife, Kay Warren, who organizes the Global Summit on AIDS. Kay tells us how the event became so politically charged.
Plus, you may not be used to the term Feminist Muslim, but one woman wants to change that. Journalist Asra Nomani tells us why she’s standing up for the rights of Muslim women.

And, we’ll have a conversation with Creation Museum founder Ken Ham.
