The Trolley Stops Here First Church Media

If God created day and night or light and darkness, then where do dawn and dusk fit in? If we believe that God is Creator, male, female and spirit then can humans not identify with different genders and identities?

We are back for an exciting and in-depth episode! 

Join us for a conversation with our special guests, Rev. Mary Johnson & retired United Methodist Bishop Peggy Johnson. We will discuss God's different appearances throughout scripture, transitions for God’s children, as well as Rev. Mary & Bishop Peggy sharing their own transitional experiences.
