With a mutual love for tacos and insatiable curiosities, these kindred spirits will swear and wonder, exploring the borders of what religion and community can be. Join us for a podcast full of story, theology, and comedy, where we delve into how to make meaning and discover hope in a world that damns those who are different. This is Sacred & Profane, where we bend the binaries of faith.
