Show Notes

On this episode of the Faith and Imagination podcast, we spoke with Anne Snyder. Anne is editor-in-chief of Comment Magazine, a national venue for public theology, and she founded their partner project Breaking Ground, a collaborative web commons created to address the crises of the past year with wisdom, imagination, and hope. She is also the author of the book The Fabric of Character: A Wise Giver’s Guide to Supporting Social and Moral Renewal. We discussed the challenge of doing public theology, her vision for Comment Magazine, the demands of building and writing about character, and the exigencies of moral renewal.

Interview by Matthew Wickman, Founding Director, BYU Humanities Center.

Produced and edited by Brooke Browne and Sam Jacob.
