    Ted Baker

    In this episode of Sacred Sitdowns, Danny and Kyle welcome Ted Baker to explore faith, identity, and the long road back from brokenness. Ted shares his journey growing up as the son of two ministers in Anderson, Indiana, and how his big, magnetic personality became both a gift and a defense mechanism. They discuss what it has meant to be an African American man in a predominantly white church, why he chose Geist after walking away from a congregation that would not fully welcome his LGBTQ child, and the season of depression and suicidal thoughts that brought him to his knees and, ultimately, closer to God. Ted opens up about the friend, the faith, and even a little Joel Osteen that helped him claw his way back, and what it looks like now to hold onto grace while still calling himself a broken, hot mess. Tune in for an honest and moving conversation on shame, healing, and finding belonging in the body of Christ.

    Today we sit down with Deb Strock-Kuss and Randy Kuss as they conclude their work at Geist Christian Church and enter retirement.
