Read the February Interfaith Roundup.

The Interfaith News Roundup is a CEIE-sponsored monthly publication through its online journal, The Interfaith Observer. Concise paragraphs summarize relevant religious/interfaith stories that impact society. Each paragraph is linked to the full story it introduces.

“But there is another “R” that precedes these academic subjects that is even more critical for overall success. Without it, students, teachers and school employees of all kinds are subject to discrimination and unfair disadvantages. This basic element of public education is Religious freedom”
-Dr. Rob Sellers, in a section titled Democracy at Risk 

Dr. Rob Sellers is an active participant in the interfaith movement locally (as president multiple years of the Abilene Interfaith Council), nationally (as a member of the Interfaith Commission of the National Council of Churches USA) and internationally (as a member of the Interfaith Relations Commission of the Baptist World Alliance and a trustee of the Parliament of the World’s Religions). Sellers has a passion for the interfaith movement and for working cooperatively with persons of multiple faith traditions. 

Topics Include: democracy at risk, religious freedom in public schools and attacks on the separation of Church and State.
