How to Read the Bible Part Two: The Tough Stuff

This week, Laura and Ethan are joined by Dr. Toni Alimi for a conversation about The Tough Stuff in our scripture and tradition. From Augustine to @ladygaga to materialism to Jacob, we cover a lot of ground, all rooted in the essential question: how do we hold disparate and hard things in tension, especially when it's about our faith?

Toni Alimi lives in Ithaca, NY, with his wife and their daughter. He teaches philosophy at Cornell University.
