• In this episode we chat with Scot Loyd
• Scot Loyd is an author, speaker, and storyteller exploring the intersections of race, religion, culture, and communication. Raised in rural Arkansas within classical Pentecostalism, he learned to pray before he learned to question—but those questions led him into a lifelong journey of faith beyond fundamentalism.  He writes for seekers, skeptics, and worn-out believers who long for something deeper than dogmatism and truer than performance.
