ABOUT THIS EPISODE
WEEK 41: Our Testimonies
We're on a bench in Arlington, Virginia for this one — and we're doing something we've never done in 40 episodes. No guest, no topic, no rapid-fire round. Just the two of us telling our stories in full.
How we each came to faith, what we believed before, the parts that were slow and unglamorous, and the moments that actually turned. This is the background to everything else we've ever said on this show.
