Lauren Green Religion

Lauren Green is a practicing Christian and member of the African Methodist Episcopal Church. Green has never been questioned as to whether her Christianity may put her at odds with her job as Chief Religion Correspondent with Fox News.

Lauren Green Reza Aslan

In 2011, Lauren Green asked whether Islam “makes believers more susceptible to radicalization.” After a 2013 interview with Iranian-American scholar Reza Aslan (who was then promoting his new book, Zealot: The Life and Times of Jesus of Nazareth), Green received considerable criticism for her questions.

She questioned why a Muslim would write about Jesus, saying, “You’re a Muslim, so why did you write a book about the founder of Christianity?” Aslan defended his credentials several times throughout, and clearly stated that his interest was scholarly. Green continued to press him on the same matters, clearly not taking on board anything Reza Aslan said.

Erik Wemple of The Washington Post disparaged her questions as “dumb, loaded, and prejudicial,” calling for the Fox News Channel to apologize to Aslan. Daniel Politi of Slate speculated that the interview was possibly “the single most cringe-worthy, embarrassing interview on Fox News […] in recent memory.”

Matthew J. Franck criticized Reza Aslan for his claim of a degree in the history of religions, as he teaches creative writing and holds a PhD in Sociology of Religion rather than a degree in history. In the interview, Aslan clearly stated that “anyone who thinks this book is an attack on Christianity has not read it yet.”

Lauren Green Book

Green’s book Lighthouse Faith: God As a Living Reality in a World Immersed in Fog was published in 2017.

Is God Just a Distant Concept? An Award-Winning Religion Correspondent is Convinced the Answer is No and Explores the Possible Relationship with Our Creator

Fox News Religion Correspondent Lauren Green uses her wealth of stories, vast network of contacts, and her own extensive study of theology to take the reader on a unique journey of spiritual discovery. With few female authors writing in the field of theology, Green provides an important perspective to all who wish to move closer to not only a deeper relationship with God but an understanding of what makes that possible.

Green gathers insight from some amazing guides along the way, through personal conversations with some of the leading minds in the world on the topic of Christianity.

Lighthouse Faith explores the heart of the Christian doctrine and a pathway of perceiving God as an interactive hands-on presence; a caring and loving being. The first commandment is a life-giving force loaded with information about the world in which we live. This law stands atop the other nine commandments as a beacon of light, illuminating the created order, just as a lighthouse lamp shines in a darkened space, heralding a way to safety.
