What if being faithful means being disruptive? In this episode of The Pastor in Training Podcast, Jeffery White sits down with Mark Sandlin — Presbyterian minister, co-founder of The Christian Left, and President & Co-Executive Director of ProgressiveChristianity.org.

Mark has spent years challenging toxic theology and championing a faith that is courageous, inclusive, and rooted in the teachings of Jesus. We dive deep into:
✅ The difference between following Jesus and following the religion built around him
✅ Deconstruction without losing faith
✅ LGBTQ+ inclusion in the church
✅ How progressive Christianity can move from ideas to real-world action
✅ The future of the American church

If you’ve ever wrestled with faith, church, or what it means to follow Jesus today — this episode is for you.
