E7: Smallness Was Never the Calling: An Interview with Sarah Bucy Klingler Part 1


Listen Later

What happens when the roles you were handed—pastor’s kid, missionary kid, “good Christian woman”—start to feel like a costume? In this episode, Sarah Bucy Klingler shares her story of spiritual formation, inherited faith, and the slow, painful realization that her gifts didn’t fit the box she was told to live in.

We talk about protective suits, people-pleasing, and the ache of shrinking yourself to survive. We explore the moment when faith starts to feel off, the courage to ask dangerous questions, and the pivotal shift that led Sarah to seminary in search of safety, truth, and Jesus.

This is a conversation for the ones in the middle—the ones who are unraveling, questioning, and aching to be fully themselves. You’re not alone. And smallness was never the calling.
