Summary

Dr. Daniel Lee Hill (Ph.D. Wheaton) is an assistant professor of Christian Theology at George W. Truett Theological Seminary at Baylor University. He, his wife, and his young son live in Waco, TX with a jar of sourdough starter and a persistent jug of kombucha scoby.

In this conversation, Daniel and I wrestle with a Hauerwasian approach to political theology, and while we find ourselves in much agreement, we try to play Devil's advocate with ourselves and wrestle with some of the challenges to this position.
