                • 2022 Season Trailer
                  I've noticed there are really important issues bubbling up in our culture and people just seem to want to yell at each other about them instead of cutting each other a little bit of slack. 
                  That's why I'm relaunching the Recovering Hypocrite podcast. This season, we'll look at some of these issues with a posture of grace and seek to pair biblical truth with a pursuit for common ground.
