In 2011

Tune in this weekend to Interfaith Alliance’s weekly radio show and podcast State of Belief to hear…

…Rev. Dr. Jane Adams Spahr of the Center for Lesbian and Gay Studies in Religion and Ministry at the Pacific School of Religion, on why it has been important to her to perform same-gender marriages, even though her church, the American Presbyterian Church, did not permit the practice.

…Rev. David Beckmann, President of Bread for the World, on his organization’s work to end global hunger, and most recently, his participation in the Circle of Protection, an initiative among religious leaders to defend the poor against extreme budget cuts.

…Rev. Robert Chase, Executive Director of Intersections International, which strives to build cross-cultural dialogue, on the progressive nonprofit Sojourners’ decision to reject his organization’s video ad on Believe Out Loud, a project welcoming same-gender families to houses of worship.  Click here to read the interview transcript.

Plus, Rev. Gaddy shares some thoughts on the implications of how a pilot removed two imams from a flight this past week – imams who were on the way to a conference on religious tolerance.
