Hi, I’m Isabela, host of the Amateur Activist Podcast where we talk about big social, political and sometimes theological issues. Join me and my guests as we try to understand topics that sometimes seem too big or too nuanced. We don’t have all the answers and we certainly don’t have the resources to make a big impact but we have our voices. I invite you to join me in these conversations that are sometimes complex and uncomfortable. I’m not qualified nor do I have the capacity to be all in all the time. But I’ll attempt to change the world regardless because I believe we deserve better.
Join Isabela for the season finale of Amateur Activist!!!

Amateur Book Club: Hell Bent by Brian Recker
Welcome to the Amateur Book Club! In this episode, Isabela talks about Hell Bent: How the Fear of Love Holds Christians Back from a Spirituality of Love by Brian Recker.
