Simon Smart

Welcome to Life and Faith from CPX.

I'm Simon Smart.

And I'm Justine To.

Well, it seems like we've said this before on Life and Faith, but we'll say it again.

So the best I can do is, in the midst of this, serve others as hard, as well, as imperfectly as I can.

And in all of that imperfection, somehow they're getting bits of me all along the way.

You've been listening to Life and Faith with me, Simon Smart, and Justin Taro.

Thank you to Adriel Booker and Paul Gallagher.

Welcome to Life and Faith from CPX.

I'm Simon Smart.

in these very and increasingly polarized times the art of disagreeing well is one more of us are going to have to learn and that is a skill that's not easy to master and my guest today is someone i trust to be able to help us in that endeavor he's an expert in living well in pluralist societies where we inevitably live and work and play alongside people with whom we disagree sometimes quite profoundly He is a discerning critic of our times, a keen observer of cultural forces that shape and influence us, and just has a refreshingly sober and sensible approach to some of the challenges we face.

His emphasis on the relational aspects of our civic life are especially pertinent.

So, you know, just as a final word is do everything you can to keep it that way.

Yes.

This has been Life and Faith with me, Simon Smart.

It was excellent to catch up with John Inazu in Melbourne when he was here.
