"A lot of people think we have a violence problem, but it doesn't seem to be the case; but where we are different is in terms of guns," says Dr. David Hemenway of Harvard University's Injury Control Research Center. He makes the case for a public health approach which treats gun violence as an epidemic to be mitigated through practical long-term solutions. In addition, Professors Chris Hays and Carly Crouch of Fuller Theological Seminary discuss their book God and Guns, examining the presumed correlation between American Christianity and support of gun ownership. To close, Diane Latiker shares what peacemaking might look like on the ground in the face of such bleak realities.

Today, we're sharing a special episode from No Small Endeavor, produced by our friends at Great Feeling Studios and PRX. Hosted by award-winning professor Lee C. Camp, the No Small Endeavor podcast thoughtfully merges the world of theology with arts, society, and politics. Like this episode, where award-winning professor Lee C. Camp sits down with Dr. David Hemenway of Harvard University's Injury Control Research Center and Professors Chris Hays and Carly Crouch of Fuller Theological Seminary to talk about the gun epidemic in America and what can be done to stop gun violence.
