Why is it important to engage with objections and disagreement? Can we actually do that while still loving people? Andrew is joined by Preston Sprinkle (Centre for Faith, Sexuality and Gender) and Katherine Brown (Evangelical Alliance) to chat about these questions.

In the second half of the episode, they talk through some principles for having fruitful conversations from Preston’s book Does the Bible Support Same-Sex Marriage?
