Liberty has always carried tricky questions with it. Most folks in 2025 would agree that human beings should have liberty, but how one becomes free persists as a debate. Do we spring fully free into this world? Does participation in certain kinds of communities make us free? Can education of this or that sort develop freedom? This last question leads a conversation into the possibility of liberal arts, and Richard Detweiler’s book The Evidence Liberal Arts Needs takes up not only a discussion of what makes an education a liberal-arts education but also why and how people in our moment still should make the case for liberal arts. Christian Humanist Profiles is glad to welcome Dr. Detweiler to the show.
