In this episode, Callisa and Holly dive deep into some controversial topics with Nick Girard. We would like to point out that there is discussion around religion, gender inequality, and violence. For the sake of a shorter conversation, some generalizations have been made and we want to acknowledge that there are always exceptions and rarely anything is ever black and white.

Written by Nick Girard, In The Beginning is a throught-provoking take on good, evil, and the meaning of life. The books follows God through the creation of angels, Earth, heaven and hell, worship, love, death, money, war, and more.
