We talk (again!) today with the spiritual father and inspiration of Flying Colors: Matt Childers. Matt is the reason this podcast exists and remains a constant encouragement to me personally. We talk today about basic human decency, mourning the death of the influence of Ravi Zacharias, the Rise and Fall of Mars Hill podcast, and a way forward for the church.

I'm joined this week by three members of the extraordinary Byrd family. Russell from East Lansing, Michigan, Wesleigh from Laguna Beach, California, and Maddie from Ann Arbor, Michigan.
I talk with Russell about his international professional basketball career and navigating the pandemic with his young family.
I talk with Wesleigh about art, place and beauty in a season of tremendous uncertainty.
I talk with Maddie about the great University of Michigan, the interruptions in her athletic career, and emerging from her undergraduate experience with her faith intact.
These are amazing people.
All from one family.
I can't wait to share this conversation with you.
