In this week's episode, we tackle the decision made by the White House this week on student loan debt forgiveness. You can listen to what we think about debt forgiveness more broadly in Episode 18. But in this episode, we contend with the actual policy itself. Is it progressive? Is it regressive? What about long-term implications? To wrap up, we discuss some of the common reactions from Christians we've seen on social media -- and provide some cautions.

Welcome new listeners to The Morning Five, our Monday-Thursday podcast on Wear We Are. We’re back from a summer hiatus and so pleased to join That Sounds Fun Network. The Morning Five is a great way to start your day with the news, and also asks you to invite Jesus into the news of the day. Usually, you can expect this show to last five minutes, but Michael had a bit more to cover today. We hope this podcast brightens your week, takes the stress out of the news, and invites you to pray about our civic life.

Episode 30: We're back and ready to have fun!

In this week's episode, we have some exciting news! We have a new name! We have new artwork! We're on a new podcast network -- That Sounds Fun Network!

We're thrilled to welcome new listeners to Wear We Are, a faith and politics pod, where you can expect expert political analysis on the news of the day and the big ideas and narratives going around in American (and sometimes global) politics, from two Christians who have worked in the civic arena for over a decade. In this episode, we introduce ourselves, introduce the podcast, and we give you a bird's eye view of the upcoming November midterm elections. Expect more midterm coverage in the coming weeks, especially with our Morning 5 episodes each Monday-Thursday.

To our loyal listeners and subscribers, thanks for sticking with us! We hope our community will grow over the coming weeks and months.
