Pastor Mike and Amber Albee Swenson tackle the sometimes uncomfortable dynamics between Christians and non-Christians. They discuss the balance of engaging with the world while remaining true to your faith. Through personal stories (who were some of Amber's favorite 90s bands? Why did Pastor Mike smash his CD collection?) and biblical insights, they discuss the importance of being in the world and not of it, understanding how influences shape beliefs, and fostering authentic relationships without judgment. The conversation encourages you to be present in the world, embodying Christ’s love and truth, while grappling with the complexities of faith in everyday life.
