What can one church in Washington, D.C. reveal about American religious life, social justice, and the power of oral history? In this episode, I talk with public historian Shae Corey, the creator and producer of the podcast Holy Local , which grew out of an in-depth oral history project focused on the Church of the Saviour. Shae shares what it takes to build a public history project from the ground up, the unexpected challenges of capturing living memory, and why stories of faith—especially local, community-based ones—matter deeply in understanding our present moment.
