How to Faithfully Engage in Politics When You’re Single (feat. Kaitlyn Schiess)

In this episode, you'll hear Kaitlyn and I talk about: 

• How spiritual formation impacts political engagement—and why this is gets more human, accessible, and impactful on the local level. 
• Why self-sufficiency is a myth--for individuals and families and all people. 
• The ways collective engagement beats isolation, even within family units. 
• And why reciprocity is crucial within church communities, especially across diverse backgrounds and life stages.  
• Before we dive in, give me 15 seconds to tell you about how you can get your hands on some fun podcast bonuses.
