Policies are a symptom of the deeper illness within the US. We need to learn from our history - at every pivot point we could have made better choices as a nation, but we didn’t. This means we could choose rightly now. The future can be different!

Tune into this special podcast episode with Kyle who shares about his work at the intersection of faith and technology, his upbringing and identity. Growing up Kyle felt he was offered a clear pathway for what it looked like to be a Christian involved in politics (i.e. it meant you were a Republican) - there were specific convictions and policies to adhere to. Kyle questioned this packaged identity after a while - seeing the bias in the criminal justice system helped open his eyes to the other ways of seeing things. Mis and dis information are huge challenges for all of us seeking truth; sharing our own story can be a really powerful way to enter into conversation with people across political (and other) difference.
