“The question isn’t are you praying, but what will you do after saying amen?” - Emelda De Coteau.
Being a Christian isn’t just about the fact that we believe in Christ; it is about how we embody that faith in our daily lives. Our guests today are co-hosts of the podcast Pray with Our Feet which uplifts the intersection of progressive Christian faith and social justice / activism. They are passionate about what it truly means to live out our faith.
