Hour 1: The Last Charge Of The Rough Rider
Racked by rheumatism, a ticking embolism, pathogens in his blood, a bad leg from an accident, and a bullet in his chest from an assassination attempt, in the last two years of his life from April 1917 to January 6, 1919, Teddy Roosevelt went from the great disappointment of being denied his own regiment in World War I, leading a suicide mission of Rough Riders against the Germans, to the devastating news that his son Quentin had been shot down and killed over France. Suffering from grief and guilt, marginalized by world events, the great glow that had been his life was now but a dimming lantern. But TR’s final years were productive ones as well: he churned out several “instant” books that promoted U.S. entry into the Great War, and he was making plans for another run at the Presidency in 1920 at the time of his death. Indeed, his political influence was so great that his opposition to the policies of Woodrow Wilson helped his party take back the Congress in 1918. Join us today to take a deeper look at the later years of one of America’s most interesting and heroic characters.
Hour 2: Searching For God In Christianity
Reformation always precedes revival. Our conversation today is designed to help us seek a ‘reformation’ within our culture of what Christianity actually is—namely, that Jesus’ message is one of love and not division, the Church an institution that protects and doesn’t harm, the Gospel a truth that is essential to daily life and spirituality, not irrelevant. Our guest will translate theology into English, into the everyday, illuminating afresh and anew the classic Gospel message as the antidote to the identity crises plaguing modern Western Christianity.
