COMMON CHRISTIANITY
Common Christianity is a podcast focused on highlighting ways Christians can embrace the common ground together while still remaining true to our individual convictions about the faith we all cherish so deeply.
This podcast engages in candid discussions about sensitive topics, including abandonment, addiction, trauma, and sexual assault. These conversations are framed through the lens of theology and faith, areas where strong opinions are often held. Our goal is to explore these themes thoughtfully and constructively, fostering understanding, healing, and unity across diverse perspectives.
