In this episode of Overturning Tables, Rev. Derek Terry and Rev. Jonathan Bradner dive deep into the question, “What is political theology?” Together, they explore how faith and politics intersect, not as a game of power or partisanship, but as a moral and spiritual call to action.

Jonathan unpacks his belief that political theology is about living out the Gospel in ways that challenge systems of oppression and prioritize the most vulnerable. Derek reflects on how political theology requires confronting the injustices that faith communities often ignore, from systemic racism to economic disparity, while finding ways to organize for change.

From the legacies of abolitionist and liberation theology to the prophetic voices of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and James Cone, Derek and Jonathan trace the roots of this powerful tradition. They share personal stories, struggles, and the hope they find in moving political theology from abstract ideas into real-world practice.

Whether you're a seasoned advocate for justice or just beginning to question what your faith has to do with the political realities around you, this conversation will challenge and inspire you to rethink how theology can transform society.
