About unCandied Coating

Life is more than just a little messy. It's filled with disappointments and discouragement, trauma, self-loathing, and devastation. Christianity is often presented as a candy-coating to cover the heartaches and hopelessness of life in the 21st century. But when Christianity is candy-coated, it is no longer Christianity. In our discussions we'll tackle topics such as depression, addiction, abuse, traumas, and yes, even the socio-political issues that impact our lives on the daily. In our conversations we are going to examine the ugly sides of life through the lens of real, practical Christianity.
