A conversation wrestling with how to think about and respond to the 2024 election, regardless of outcome, in a decidedly and distinctively Christian manner.

A conversation about Caleb's efforts as a playwright, James' recruitment into politics by both presidential campaigns, and a compelling story we skipped over in our current preaching series. And that's barely scratching the surface.

This is part 2 of a conversation on abortion.

A conversation about the importance of confessing as a connective practice in Christian community.
