Today we hear from Bill White, Executive Director of Small Church, Big Table. Their work focuses on helping faith communities navigate one of the most challenging and important questions of our time: how to become more welcoming of LGBTQ people. Rather than pushing a predetermined outcome, Small Church, Big Table creates a space where leaders can engage the process with honesty, courage, and care.

Bill shares how churches can move through this discernment in ways that are healthy and non-explosive, even in communities with deeply diverse viewpoints. By learning from others who have walked this road with wisdom and grace, leaders are able to find clarity for their own context.

As leaders reimagine ministry beyond evangelicalism, many are asking how to lead communities through change without fracturing relationships. If you are navigating questions of inclusion, unity, and faithful leadership, this episode offers a thoughtful and grounded path forward.
