I believe that Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior, that Black Lives Matter, that only a woman has the right to choose what happens to her body, and that sensible gun control can save lives. Those beliefs cost me friends and family because I refuse to be silent at the dinner table. Join me for Faith & Politics: A Taboo Table Talks Podcast as I explore the stories of those rejected by the mainstream for their faith, beliefs, and politics. Never be afraid to speak.
