Ted Vial is on the podcast to talk about his new book, Modern Religion, Modern Race. Ted is Professor of Theology and Modern Western Religious Thought at the Iliff School of Theology in Denver. Iliff is one of the sponsors for #theologybeercamp in Denver this August 18th-19th (get your tickets here). In his book, Ted talks about why everything that is going on today is based on 19th century German philosophy.

Your faith is not based on right beliefs, but is based on being part of the Christian community: "your religious experience is formed by the community of which you are a member."
