The Unlikely Disciple

Last week I finally got around to reading Kevin Roose’s excellent book The Unlikely Disciple. If you are at all interested in evangelical subculture, pick up a copy of the book at Borders or Barnes&Noble. In short, Roose is a secular college student from Brown who takes a semester to study at Liberty, America’s “holiest” university.

I had the privilege of cohosting an interview with Roose tonight on the Infidel Guy podcast (under the name Mikhailovich). If you don’t have time for the book, his insights are certainly worth a listen. Go to www.infidelguy.com and select the most recent podcast (#490) from the dropdown list on the media player in the middle.

Update: If you don’t want to stream, you can download an MP3 of the podcast directly here.


About: I've considered myself a secular humanist since March of 2008, a date preceded on my part by moderate Christian strivings in a fundamentalist environment. I majored in English at a conservative Christian college, and one of my main interests at the time was theology. I enjoy good food, good beer, good conversation, and the skeptical community in Pittsburgh. Read more from this author
