Lloyd and Deborah Biddle join us this week to talk about the work they are doing in our area's public schools. Our conversation also covers a variety of topics including adjusting to life in Wisconsin, serving in the church, the joy of mentoring elementary students, COVID's impact on the education gap, life on a school board, the weight of being a voice of diversity, race reconciliation within the church, and "doing the work."
