304 - Robb Ryerse (Running for Our Lives)

I interview Robb Ryerse, a self-described Republican and "never-Trump" evangelical pastor who decided to primary his own congressman in the 2018 election. Robb wrote about his experience in the new book Running for Our Lives: Faith, Politics, and the Common Good. He's also the pastor of Vintage Fellowship in Fayetteville, Arkansas, and executive director of Brand New Congress, a non-profit organization that hopes "to elect regular working people to Congress who put people before party to make government more accountable and responsive to the needs of all Americans."

Remember when people said gay marriage would lead to polygamy? Well...now Utah has essentially decriminalized it, and a town in Massachusetts has passed an ordinance to recognize polyamorous relationships. Is a polyamory revolution just around the corner?
