Her recent book, "Trauma in the Pews," addresses the impact of trauma on faith and spiritual practices. We discuss how churches can further traumatize people who have suffered trauma. We also discuss what we can do to come alongside those who suffer with empathy and love.

May 25, 2023Are we are a battleship or the Coast Guard?
It's easy to think as Christians we're fighting a war. But is that the best metaphor for how we are to live as Jesus' disciples in a broken world? We talk about the difference between culture wars and being redemptive partners with Jesus on his mission.
