As U.S. voters gear up for the election, in an increasingly divided country the confusion of faith with political identity can contribute to further polarization. It's something New York Times columnist David French has personally experienced.

He joins the show to discuss his latest piece, "The Day My Old Church Canceled Me Was a Very Sad Day."
