ERB Editor C. Christopher Smith sat down with two first-time guests, John Inazu and Monty Montgomery for a deeply-felt and thought-provoking conversation about Christian witness in a time of contention and social polarization.
John Inazu is the Sally D. Danforth Distinguished Professor of Law and Religion at Washington University in St. Louis. His scholarly focus is the First Amendment freedoms of speech, assembly, and religion. Inazu is the author of Confident Pluralism: Surviving and Thriving Through Deep Difference (University of Chicago Press, 2016), and co-editor (with Tim Keller) of Uncommon Ground: Living Faithfully in a World of Difference (Thomas Nelson, 2020). David “Monty” Montgomery is the Regional Director of IFES Europe, overseeing the university ministry in over 40 countries from Greenland to Cyprus. He and his wife Gwen live in Ireland.
