Show Notes

“Once upon a time you had it all beautifully sorted out. Then you didn’t.” If these words of Sarah Bessey’s resonate at all, this episode is my gift to you. As a leading voice in the conversation around deconstruction, Sarah has years of experience navigating doubt, wrestling with questions and challenging The Church to become the best and truest version of itself.

Through her books like Jesus Feminist, Out of Sorts and her Evolving Faith Community, Sarah communicates care, inclusion and grace for anyone who is trying to figure out who God is, what the Bible actually means and what it really can look like to be Jesus followers.

Sarah’s newest book, “Field Notes for the Wilderness: Practices for an Evolving Faith” is out now and it is a guidebook for anyone who is wandering, even if your path is taking you away from The Church.
