On This Week's Episode:
This week, we've got Sarah L. Sanderson, author of "The Place We Make." Sarah is all about radical honesty and the freedom that comes with it -- something that we all want but can struggle to embrace when shame comes into play.
Today, we're tackling the elephant in the room -- America's historical struggle with racial injustice. Some may be thinking, "Haven't we moved past this?" but let's not shy away. Let's lean into that discomfort hoping to find freedom and healing on the other side. Let's dive into this conversation with a posture of Jesus who says that "the truth will set you free" as we talk through this difficult topic with Sarah.
