Aubrey Becker asks whether Jesus is in the space between "pro life" and "pro choice"
You read the title of the episode, you know what we are talking about. It’s THE issue for so many people.<br /><br />Aubrey Becker is our guest today and her role as an infant loss coordinator for a major hospital gives her the unique ability to weigh in on this conversation. You’ll hear in our conversation that before Aubrey started in this work, she would have easily identified her self as ‘Pro-Life’, but the lives that she has crossed paths with has given her pause to consider what being ‘Pro-Life’ actually means.<br /><br />This conversation is hard. It’s nuanced. It’s complicated. It’s challenging to every line we want to draw and every stone we want to cast. And…as is the case in a lot of our episodes…we don’t solve the problem or walk away with answers. But we do get the incredible privilege of bringing ourselves a little closer to the people and the stories that are central to this conversation.<br /><br />We hope you enjoy this conversation as much as we did.<br /><br />As always, we’d love to hear your thoughts!<br /><br /><b>Taylor’s Very Dope Shirt</b> (just imagine you are seeing it and it’s VERY dope…so dope you might want one): <a href="https://thehappygivers.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://thehappygivers.com</a><br /><b></b><br /><b>GOD IS BETTER THAN YOU THINK:</b> <br />Instagram/TikTok - @godisbetterpod <br />Youtube - <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@godisbetterthanyouthink6143" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.youtube.com/@godisbetterthanyouthink6143</a> <br />Thoughts?

Josh & Taylor ask is there a better way to structure churches?
Buckle Up. Your in for a wild ride with this one!<br /><br />Josh and Taylor are flying solo! There’s no guest on this week’s episode, and we are talking about ‘the church.’<br /><br />This is a conversation Josh and Taylor have as friends on a semi-regular basis, and while we have shared values we disagree quite a bit. This is a messy topic but a very important one. It’s a topic that has floated around in several of our other episodes and we are here to flesh it out a bit.<br /><br />We talk about, systems, structures, empire, leadership, “the early church” (with air quotes), diversity, belonging, bad HR practices, and how old Josh is. <br /><br />We didn’t cover everything, and we didn’t come to a conclusions, but we feel like the wrestling is necessary. It’s not always easy to have conversations when you disagree, but it’s those conversations that just might lead us to something different.<br /><br />We’d love to hear your thoughts as well, in the comments, via email, send us a message on social, or whatever works! <br /><br /><b>Taylor’s Very Dope Shirt</b> (just imagine you are seeing it and it’s VERY dope…so dope you might want one): <a href="https://thehappygivers.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://thehappygivers.com </a><br /><b></b><br /><b></b><br /><b>Our Coffee for this Episode:</b> <a href="https://proudmarycoffee.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://proudmarycoffee.com/</a> <br /><b></b><br /><b>GOD IS BETTER THAN YOU THINK:</b> <br />Instagram/TikTok - @godisbetterpod <br />Youtube - <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@godisbetterthanyouthink6143" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.youtube.com/@godisbetterthanyouthink6143</a> <br />Thoughts?

Carlos Rodriguez says God is Better Than White Jesus
We could not be more excited about this episode as we had the incredible opportunity to talk to <b>Carlos Rodriguez</b>, Founder and Director of <b>The Happy Givers</b>.<br /><br />Carlos made an unusual journey from author and megachurch pastor in the US to the founder and director of a non-profit in Puerto Rico where he is originally from and now lives with his family. His story is filled with self-reflection, action, humility, and change and we could not be more here for it!<br /><br />In this conversation we ask uncomfortable questions and Carlos gives a lot of uncomfortable answers—in the best way!! We talk about justice, privilege, oppression, colonization, advocacy, charity, platform, brown Jesus and so much more! But the beauty of the way Carlos first challenges his own way of thinking and living before extending a challenge to the rest of us is something that gave us a lot to think about.<br /><br />We hope this episode is as much of a gift to you as it has been to us!<br /><br /><b>Carlos Rodriguez:</b><br />Personal Cell: (919)809-4353<br />Email: carlos@thehappygivers.com<br />Instagram/Threads: @carloshappynpo <br /><b></b><br /><b></b><br /><b>The Happy Givers:</b><br />Clothing/Merch Line:<b> </b><a href="https://thehappygivers.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://thehappygivers.com/</a><br />Non-Profit Information: <a href="https://www.happynpo.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.happynpo.com/</a><br />Email: <a href="https://thehappygivers.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">info@thehappygivers.com</a><br />Instagram: @thehappygivers<br />Instagram Spanish Account: @lafundacionhappy <br /><br /><b>THE CAVE in Puerto Rico near The Happy Givers</b><br /><a href="https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/43741708?viralityEntryPoint=1&unique_share_id=2C0707A1-8A1B-4EDA-A9DA-3DC114CFD764&slcid=db7445fcf96c4603b6bce6499f37510d&s=76&feature=share&adults=1&channel=native&slug=gB5vUjQ3&source_impression_id=p3_1724862604_P3kaqfUrAnWQ66bw" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">AirBnB Link</a><br /><br /><b>GOD IS BETTER THAN YOU THINK:</b> <br />Instagram/TikTok - @godisbetterpod <br />Youtube - <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@godisbetterthanyouthink6143" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.youtube.com/@godisbetterthanyouthink6143</a> <br />Thoughts?
