In this episode, Eric and Jed discuss how their personal faiths are being revisited and maturing in adulthood.  With more time to wander, be hurt by the church, live your own independent life and find other outlets for purpose and community, why would one revisit their faith?   What does that look or feel like?  Why believe or surrender to something bigger than yourself?
