Homebrewed Christianity

Ethicists love to talk about war and peace. Theologians regularly debate the merits of pacifism verses just-war. The biggest problem with theses conversations is just how foreign the actual experience and situation of the solider is from the debates.

On the show this week is Logan Isaac and Matt Moorman from the Centurion's Guild. Matt was a friend of Tripp's from high school turned solider turned minister and friend of Logan. Logan is an Iraqi vet and a peace activist and advocate for his fellow soldiers. He's the author of Reborn on the Fourth of July: The Challenge of Faith, Patriotism & Conscience and For God and Country (In That Order): Faith and Service for Ordinary Radicals.
