What matters most to us in times of consequence? Is it wealth? Is it prestige and power? Is it likes or favorites? To me, what I hope to center is that friendship, family, empathy, compassion, quirkiness, humor, and hope will win out even amidst the fray of this transient and turbulent life. My name is Rob Lee, I’m a pastor, public theologian, and author working at the intersection of faith and public life. I want this podcast to be a place where I interview those people who are exemplifying what it means to exist with complete abandon in this life.

Amazing. Prophetic. Needed.
Just listen to it. The Lee soul is large and we all need some of it. This is needed.
Some Facts Incorrect
Speaking as if January 6th Capitol riot was on the same level as the Civil War and the Confederacy was a stretch too far for me to accept. One has nothing to do with the other. The Civil War was a struggle against an insurrection, but last January 6th wasn’t. Stick to the facts, true history and not left-wing lies.
Love is the answer...
