'Holy Boldness' with Lora Andrews / DGPod Episode 19
In this episode of The Daring Grace Podcast, Rev. Lora Andrews shares about her work as pastor of Roots Church in the Kansas City area and her commitment to creating space for LGBTQ+ voices within the church. She talks honestly about the courage it takes to lead boldly, challenge existing structures, and create communities where people can experience belonging.
But meaningful work comes with a cost. Lora and Brittany also reflect on what it takes to remain resilient while doing work that matters. Together, they explore the importance of rest, sustainable leadership, community, and learning how to stay committed for the long haul without losing themselves along the way.
This is a conversation about pioneer boldness, courageous ministry leadership, making space for the marginalized, and discovering that rest isn't a departure from the work— it sustains it healthily.

'The Audacity' with Allison Dunn and Adam Foster / DGPod Episode 18
The audacity it takes say yes — and what do you gain from it?
Host Brittany Bethel sits down with staff alum Adam Foster and Allison Dunn to reflect on what it meant to step into something uncomfortable, unfamiliar, and completely worth it - Summer Staff with Cross Connection.
Ten years out, they're still drawing on what they learned — about leadership, patience, building bridges across cultures, and showing up fully even when the plan falls apart.
This one's dedicated to our hundreds of audacious alumni who throughout Cross Connection's history have said 'yes' to learning and leading on how to love our neighbors well.
"Embrace the uncomfortable. Sit in it. You're going to come out of this so much better than you ever thought." Adam Foster
