Thanks for your patience while we took a bit of a summer break.

This episode is all abut the controversy of Dan Brown’s novels/movies, Da Vinci Code plus Angels and Demons.

We talk about Dan Brown the person, try to understand his motives, talk about why Christianity may be the focus for this books, work through the challenges of what society determines as a balance between trying to start meaningful conversation and damaging a religious organization through literary writing.

We have a special guest, Meghan, who joins us and brings some added perspective on the discussion. Thanks Meghan!
