The Phil Vischer Podcast show

Summary: This week's podcast features Dr. Amy Black, associate professor of political science at Wheaton College. Phil starts off the show by talking about the movie Paranorman and Skye discusses The Real Life of Timothy Green. They answer questions about the podcast on heaven two weeks ago and then talk about satire and Christianity. Dr. Amy Black discusses her book, Honoring God in Red or Blue about the history of Christianity and politics in the US and the necessity of political compromise. Dr. Amy Black has wide research and teaching interests in the fields of American Politics and Political Behavior. She has her Ph.D. from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and currently serves as the political science department chair at Wheaton College.
