Faith and Public Life – A Conversation with Gov. Spencer J. Cox

From its very founding, the United States has always featured a delicate balance of being home to an overwhelmingly religious populace while also rejecting a religious establishment. What does it mean to be a person of faith in a secular and pluralistic public sphere? Should religious people bring their values to the arena of politics – and if so, what are the limits? How can we balance religious freedom with other crucial civil and human rights? The Foyer is very grateful to be joined by Utah’s current governor (and USU alum), Spencer J. Cox, to discuss these important questions.
