Episode 22
Sometimes as people of faith, we talk more about our own lives than God. Why is that? Our humanity wants to put us and our experiences first. What would it be like if the 3 points made by every pastor when preaching was of who God is and what God wants us to do? God can do anything we if choose to say yes!
In this episode, Melissa and Bishop Wright have a conversation about what we can learn when we think of God first. We love the notion of God being with us, but the other part that we often fail to live into is that God can't be controlled, isn't domesticated, and is in favor of the poor, oppressed, the immigrant, and the imprisoned. Listen in for the full conversation.
