91X. Love Makes Room with Staci Frenes

06/17/22 • 59 min

We're joined today for a special bonus episode, in celebration of Pride Month 2022, by Staci Frenes, author of the book Love Makes Room: And Other Things I Learned When My Daughter Came Out.

Staci is a singer songwriter, business woman, author, and perhaps most pertinently to today's conversation, a mother. She shares her story with us today of what it took to make room within her evangelical faith structure for her own daughter who one day came out to Staci as a beloved member of the LGBTQIA+ community.

91. Denominational Diversity 102

Why do we have so many different denominations of Christian churches? What is gained and lost with so many divisions, drawing lines in the sands? This question comes from the Patreon group as Sarah wonders why we insist on fracturing when the promise of the new heavens and new earth seems to be unity. What are we missing that we can't begin forging that unity now?
