For the Christian, and the formerly so; for the hopeful and the heartbroken; for the grieving and the teeth-gritted; for the beloved and the bedraggled; for the pissed off and the prayerful...

Submitted humbly is a conversation between Nathan Rouse and Dr. David Gushee -- Christian ethicist, professor, pastor, and friend. It examines the sensibilities of the last few months, the efforts that were taken to chart a different course, and the importance of faith and hope and action as we look to what's next.

If you find yourself confused, distressed, lamenting, or weary in heart, this discussion is for you. If you find yourself apathetic, curious, detached, or adrift, this discussion is for you. And if you find yourself wishing that a kindred spirit would hold out a hand and sit with you while we gather the strength to move forward, this discussion is most definitely for you.

We hope it encourages you. Amen.
