About Eric Metaxas
The Eric Metaxas Show offers compelling perspective on American culture, political life, and stories making news around the corner and across the globe.
Heard on leading radio stations from coast-to-coast, The Eric Metaxas Show taps the unique talent of one of America's best known authors, commentators, TV personalities and public speakers for radio unlike anything ever heard before: compelling, compassionate and interactive as Eric and his listeners seek answers to life's toughest questions together.
ABC News has called Metaxas a "photogenic, witty ambassador for faith in public life," and The Indianapolis Star described him as "a Protestant version of William F. Buckley." He is the founder and host of Socrates in the City: Conversations on the Examined Life, an event series of "entertaining and thought-provoking discussions on 'life, God, and other small topics'" featuring such guests as Malcolm Gladwell, Cal Thomas and Bob Beckel, Dr. Francis Collins, Sir John Polkinghorne, Baroness Caroline Cox, N.T. Wright, Os Guinness, Peter Kreeft, and Dick Cavett.
In 2011, Metaxas was the 17th recipient of the Canterbury Medal awarded by the Becket Fund for Religious Freedom. Previous medalists include Mitt Romney, Chuck Colson, and Elie Wiesel. He has testified before Congress about the rise of anti-Semitism in the U.S. and abroad, and spoke at CPAC2013 on the issue of Religious Freedom. In September 2013, Eric and his wife Susanne were jointly awarded the Human Life Review's "Great Defender of Life Award." Metaxas has been awarded honorary Doctorates from Hillsdale College, Liberty University and Sewanee: The University of the South.
Bonhoeffer was Named "Book of the Year" by the ECPA. Bonhoeffer also won the 2011 John C. Pollock Award for Biography awarded by Beeson Divinity School and a 2011 Christopher Award in the Non-fiction category. Called a "biography of uncommon power," Bonhoeffer appeared on numerous 2010 "Best of the Year" lists and was featured in the Wall Street Journal, Publishers Weekly, The New Republic, Harper's, Kirkus (starred review), NPR, FoxNews, C-SPAN's Book TV, Christianity Today, The Weekly Standard, and First Things. Bonhoeffer has sold more than 800,000 copies and has been translated into 20 languages. It was recently ranked #21 on the Amazon.com listing of Most Highlighted Books of all time.
