Listen "Are politics and religion sworn enemies?"
Episode Synopsis
Bette Grande considers herself a "recovering politician." That tells you a bit about her approach to politics. And yet she's been involved in helping form policy for decades. For an even longer period, she's been immersed in trying to follow the Lord. Can these two, politics and religion, coincide, or are they more like water and oil? Bette has been outspoken in her thoughts about such topics as a regular contributor to The Forum, including in the realm of social issues through promoting a Culture of Life. In this episode, we'll hear some of the reasons for her dedication to some of the topics that affect us all and ignite universal passion.
