EP 5. Post-Election Reflections


Listen Later

In today’s episode we dive into our post-election reflections. It’s been a few months since the re-election of Donald Trump as President and we have lots of thoughts, reactions and reflections. The biggest one being why would someone vote for Trump?

This episode is dedicated to processing these events, communicating what we’ve seen, and sharing our thoughts on the matter. Using the bible as our foundation we are still struggling to see how so many people of faith have idolized this man. 

While we don’t want this to be a rant, that won’t exclude us from authentically sharing our emotions, concerns, and observations. We are human; make space for grace.
