Michael Kinnamon is known to many as a leading academician for the ecumenical movement.  His latest book, though, turns to the contemporary issue of fear as a driving force in American society.  

Why are Americans so fearful?  What does fear drive our society towards, and what can be done about it?  Is fear something religious people should embrace?  In his latest book, Dr. Michael Kinnamon turns his attention to the topic of fear. We will talk with him about the ways fear is manifest in our society and theological thought through the ages about this menacing condition of human life.  It’s a powerful book, and frankly, I can’t imagine a better time to be talking about this topic.
