Dr. Eddie S. Glaude Jr. on Love, Rage, and the American Experiment

Two men from Mississippi’s Gulf Coast wonder if America is finally willing to grow up. Watch this conversation on YouTube As we approach America’s 250th anniversary, Russell is joined by fellow southern Mississippi native and public intellectual Dr. Eddie S. Glaude Jr. to talk about race, memory, patriotism, and the stories nations tell themselves in order to avoid repentance. Drawing from his new book America, USA: How Race Shadows the Nation's Anniversaries, Glaude argues that the danger facing the country is not simply historical ignorance, but a “storybook” version of America that shields us from confronting what is broken underneath. While talking about Baldwin, Bellah, Bonhoeffer, Toni Morrison, and the civil rights movement, the two explore the tension between love of country and idolatry of nation, the persistence of racial inequality, and why prophetic truth-telling requires both courage and hope. Ultimately, Glaude’s message asks more questions than it answers, but gently ushers us toward love, reconciliation, and redemption at a time when we really need it.

John Lennox on What He Knows at 82

What a renowned 82-year-old Christian mathematician has to say about a life well lived. Watch this conversation on YouTube For decades, Oxford mathematics professor emeritus John Lennox has stood in lecture halls, debate stages, and university classrooms making the case that Christianity is not a retreat from serious thought but an invitation into it. He has debated some of the world’s best-known skeptics, from Richard Dawkins to Christopher Hitchens. He taught mathematics at Oxford. He smuggled Christian teaching behind the Iron Curtain. And now, in his eighties, with his health declining and his world physically growing smaller, he has written a memoir looking back on the strange providences that shaped his life. In his new autobiography, My Story: A spiritual and intellectual autobiography, Professor Lennox reflects on growing up amid sectarian conflict in Northern Ireland, actually hearing C. S. Lewis lecture at Cambridge (literally!), being followed by the KGB, and learning over time that saying “I don’t know” can sometimes open deeper doors than feigning certainty. If you’ve ever wondered whether intellectual seriousness and deep Christian conviction can actually coexist alongside tenderness and joy, step into the classroom: the professor is in.

HW Brands on the Patriarch of America

What does it mean to call someone the “father” of a nation—and what happens when that father is more complicated than legend allows? Watch this conversation on YouTube . Russell welcomes renowned historian H.W. Brands for a conversation on his newest book, American Patriarch: The Life of George Washington. Washington was a man formed by ambition and concern for character, but from the myth of praying at Valley Forge to the quiet realities of Washington’s faith, his life is often incorrectly perceived through a filter of our modern era. The truth about his leadership and life has more nuance than we realize. Brands helps uncover a leader who believed in providence but resisted religious spectacle, who embodied authority not through charisma but through consistency. And perhaps most strikingly, a man who understood power well enough to walk away from it. But the conversation isn’t just about the past, It’s about the kind of leadership we recognize in the present (and the kind we are missing). In an age marked by distrust in institutions and suspicion of motives, Washington’s example raises uncomfortable questions we should reckon well with: Can character still command respect? Can authority still be earned rather than performed? And are we even looking for the kind of leaders who would rather leave than stay?

Amy Grant on New Music After a Decade

Russell overcomes nerves while welcoming musical artist, songwriter, and overall legend Amy Grant. Watch this video on Youtube. Amy Grant and Russell sit down in Charlie Peacock’s home to talk about her first album in over a decade, The Me That Remains (out May 8). The conversation starts with Russell’s admission that Amy’s was his first concert as a middle school youth group student. From there, Grant reflects on the aftermath of a serious bike accident, the strange disorientation of memory loss, and the rediscovery of songwriting in the midst of an ongoing, strenuous tour schedule. Along the way, the conversation turns to the inner critic that follows all of us, the spiritual weight of suffering, the possibility of grace in a fractured world, and the artwork surrounding the record from Nashville artist Wayne Brezinka. This is a story about legacy, growth, and the healing that comes…somewhere down the road.
