Dr. Ansley Quiros & Dr. Sam Perry
On this week’s episode of “Purpose That Prevails with Dr. Otis Pickett,” Dr. Otis speaks with two religious historians and scholars who, like Otis, grew up as kids during the 1980’s “Jesus Movement” era, and whose faith was shaped by this period of rise in Christian evangelicalism. Dr. Ansley Quiros is a Professor of History at the University of North Alabama, has written extensively on race, politics and religion in today’s society, and has been integral in the development of an interracial faith community in Americas, Georgia. Sam Perry is a Professor of Sociology and Religious Studies at the University of Oklahoma, and has been a leading scholar in creating awareness of the dangers that nationalism can have when buttressed with Christian faith, even being interviewed by the January 6th Committee as an expert contributor. Among the topics of discussion in this episode include the rise of Christian nationalism and its dangers to society, how Christianity has become manipulated by American politics, and why racial healing and social justice have helped create multicultural communities in the South.
