How do I respond if my kid tells me they're transgender? What can we actually do to end homelessness? Is everyone having more sex than us?
Author, speaker and advocate, Manda Carpenter, asks these types of questions daily. Now, she's created a space where these questions and more are answered publicly.
There’s no topic that’s off-limits as she and her guests get real about relationships, social justice, faith and more. All curiosities and perspectives are welcome at this table. Pull up a seat, we're glad you're here.
It happens to all of us one way or another...
When a global pandemic upends our security.
When a partner leaves.
When we get a terrible diagnosis, or face the death of a loved one.
When long-held beliefs about God or faith slipped through our hands.
Whether the details are global or personal, we have all experienced our world falling apart. Manda brings her friend, pastor, and newly published author - Jason Adam Miller (https://www.jasonadammiller.com) - to the table to chat about...
How to deal when the world is breaking
Where we can find hope in the midst of pain and suffering
Becoming people who help put the world back together
