First hour: Professor Mark Brummitt on understanding Christianity 

Second hour: "A Season's Griot 2018"

Pew Research indicates that non-religious Americans tend to know more about the specific traditions of Christianity than Christians themselves do. On this day after Christmas, we sit down with a professor at the Colgate Rochester Crozer Divinity School. Mark Brummitt will address how we form beliefs, the rise of secularism, and how he approaches teaching his divinity school students.

Then in our second hour, "A Season's Griot" is public radio's only nationally syndicated Kwanzaa program. Hosted for 23 years by acclaimed storyteller Madafo Lloyd Wilson, this annual one-hour special captures the tales and traditions of African American and African peoples.
