What happens when we stop begging for a seat at the table—and build our own instead?
In this provocative and hope-filled conversation, Pastor Dan sits down with Brandan Robertson—pastor, activist, and author of Queer and Christian—to talk about what it means to move beyond fear-based religion into a faith rooted in love, liberation, and authenticity.
From unpacking the infamous “clobber passages” to challenging the ways institutions weaponize scripture, Brandan invites us to imagine a Christianity that looks more like Jesus and less like fear. Along the way, we hear stories of religious trauma, the lingering grip of shame, and the radical power of God’s love to set us free.
If you’ve wrestled with your identity, questioned the Bible you were handed, or longed for a faith expansive enough to hold both truth and love, this episode will meet you right where you are.
