Recorded live at the Wild Goose Festival, this special episode of On the Barstool with the Pub Pastor captures a deep, vulnerable conversation between Gayle and beloved advocate Helen Ryde — just days before Helen’s passing.

Together, we wrestle with the tensions of inclusion, identity, and living authentically within our faith. Helen shares powerful stories — from engaging Baptist pastors in unexpected dialogue to walking into spaces where they weren’t sure they’d be welcomed — and Gayle reflects on the sacred messiness of loving God and loving others when beliefs collide.

This isn’t a polished interview; it’s an invitation. To listen. To question. To stretch. And maybe, just maybe, to plant a seed of grace in places we least expect it.

Mark 8:14-21

We are so busy fighting over teh bred of life that we forget that God's love is multiplied within us, with all who draw near.

Hallelujah! Thank you for journeying with me through the book of Psalm

Halllelujah!

We are God's monument

God gives the command and suddenly it is spring

God is in charge - Hallelujah 

The trademark of God is love

How blessed to have God as our God

As thirsty for God as a dessert is for rain
