Mormons and Evangelicals - Many Christian evangelicals do not consider Mormonism a Christian faith.

News Discussion - Host Bob Abernethy talks with Managing Editor Kim Lawton and Religion News Service Editor-in-Chief Kevin Eckstrom about the top religion news of the week, including the deadly attacks against US diplomats and embassies triggered by an anti-Islam video on YouTube. They also discuss how faith-based activists are mobilizing for the presidential election now that the political conventions are finished. Belief and Practice - Rabbi Joshua Maroof of Rockville, Maryland's Magen David Sephardic Congregation explains the Sephardic Jewish 40 day special worship service of Selichot prayers for forgiveness. Selichot prayers begin before the Jewish high holidays and end on Yom Kippur, the day of atonement.
