SUMMARY:2026 Collins Lecture with John Fugelsang
DESCRIPTION:John Fugelsang is an actor\, comedian and host of “Tell Me Everything” on SiriusXM Progress. He is also the author of New York Times bestseller\, “Separation of Church and Hate: A Sane Person’s Guide to Taking Back the Bible from Fundamentalists\, Fascists and Flock-Fleecing Frauds.” \nFugelsang uses humor and biblical scholarship to challenge far-right Christian ideologies\, such as Christian nationalism\, and argues for a return to the core teachings of Jesus–love\, mercy and service. He provides a toolbox for responding to Christian nationalism on the biggest issues that divide us today: immigration\, LGBTQIA2S+ rights\, poverty\, gun safety\, feminism\, the death penalty\, and more. \nFugelsang will be joined for a portion of the event for a conversation and Q&A led by Dr. Jessica Taylor\, a strategic executive advisor\, ordained minister and founder of Leadership Training Initiative. \nIf you want to learn directly from John Fugelsang about his approach to using the scripture and Jesus’ teachings to challenge Christian nationalism and authoritarianism\, join us at the 2026 Collins Lecture for “A Conversation on the Separation of Church and Hate.” \nSaturday\, June 6 | 7 p.m.\nTrinity Episcopal Cathedral\, 147 NW 19th Ave.\, Portland\, Ore. (virtual option available)\nTickets $30 (scholarships available)
