In this 5-week course, we will read and discuss five seminal cases involving the relationship between church, the believer, and the state. These cases will most likely be:
(1) Reynolds v. United States;
(2) Epperson v. Arkansas;
(3) Zelman v. Simmons-Harris;
(4) Masterpiece Cakeshop v. Colorado; and
(5) Kennedy v. Bremerton School District.
We will discuss these cases from multiple perspectives, including the doctrinal and historical perspectives.
