- Religion & Spirituality
Nora and Natalia met on the internet and quickly formed a mutual admiration society which grew into a friendship and many conversations about life and loss and faith and God. They knew there was a place in the current cultural and political climate for a kind of Christianity that was not “THAT kind of Christian”. So Cafeteria Christian was born. They are reclaiming this pejorative for good and reminding people that even when it comes to Christianity and faith, you can take what you like and leave the rest.

#271 Voices of Persistence (on not giving up on the Bible)
Last week Natalia and producer Matthew led an event called Renew and wanted to share a part of it with you all. On Sunday evening, April 21, we gathered 6 incredible speakers to share their thoughts on why they haven’t quite given up on the Bible, at least not yet. We decided to share 3 of the 6 with you this week. So here you have Joe Davis, Matthew Ian Fleming, and Dr. Anna Carter Florence, sharing from their own voices of persistence.
