Episode 169
How Can We Find Common Spaces in the Midst of our Differences?
Hosts Joshua Noel, TJ (Tiberius Juan) Blackwell, and David (Pizza Roll) Pizarro are joined by Melynne Rust, author of "Common Spaces Between Us: Nurturing the Good in the Midst of Difference" to discuss how we can all learn to better ask questions, find common spaces, and help those who seem beyond help. Could you find a way to help a man who abused his girlfriend, or would you turn him away? Can a Christian help an Atheist be more comfortable in a time of public prayer? Can we learn to listen without affirming behaviors we may disagree with? How can the Church do more to be a helpful presence in the world rather than being a force for division? How can a posture of listening and curiosity foster greater unity in the Church? We ask all these questions and more! We discuss all this and more in this one! Join in our conversations on our Discord Server and Facebook group!
