Beau Underwood likes to say he is not a very good dinner companion. That’s because the three things he loves to talk about are religion, politics and baseball. The Illinois native and new D.C. resident studies, works and lives in the intersection of faith and politics. He earned his master’s of divinity and master’s in public policy concurrently at the University of Chicago. Now he’s an assistant pastor at National City Christian Church, as well as the partnership and outreach coordinator for Faith in Public Life, a religious progressive advocacy group. Underwood spoke to The Washington Examiner about his faith, American values and the Occupy movement. But he’s saving baseball for dinner. What is Faith in Public Life? Why is it unique?
