Luke Melonakos-Harrison joins us to talk about the Bible, building our own understanding of faith, and being a queer Christian.

Returning guest, Melissa Florer-Bixler, is the pastor of Raleigh Mennonite Church and author of many books – most recently: “How to Have an Enemy: Righteous Anger & the Work of Peace.” The book tackles just about everything that the white Church needs to start having hard conversations about.

Isaac airs his personal beef with The Liturgists Podcast and Hamilton; Brian talks about that one time he met Taylor Swift.

Semler, aka Grace Baldridge, talks about stretching the parameters of Contemporary Christian Music, how more musicians need to speak out for what they believe in, and how you don’t need to go to a homophobic church just because it’s a cool church.

Sara Zarr talks about what codependency is, how to develop healthy boundaries with God and church, and the ways in which the institutions enforce codependency through policy.

D.L. Mayfield discusses the love-hate relationship of social media, whether it is used to create relationships or build a self-aggrandizing TikTok ministry, and asks the question: Is there one way to be a good white Christian on the internet?

Caitlin Stout talks about the strange experience of being a queer chaplain and why queer folk are especially suited for that role.

We are joined by writer Charlotte Donlon to discuss her book "The Great Belonging," the upside of loneliness, what she does as a spiritual director, and connecting with yourself through art and faith.

We discuss the pros and cons of youth ministry, and how it affects our views of the Church in adulthood.
