Friends, We're talking to a new(ish) friend Matt Tebbe.

Matt Tebbe is an Episcopal Priest in Indianapolis where he co-pastors a church in Indianapolis (The Table). He co-founded Gravity Commons where he helps lead a Community dedicated to learning how to follow Jesus and take love seriously in a post-christian culture of the 21st Century.

This week, we get to talk to Micha Belong.

Micah is a queer leftist minister who was raised in a fundamentalist cult, read the Bible for themselves, and realized they had to choose between the religion they were raised in or a radical new faith. You can join their alternative church for folks left on the outside at The Llama Pack or listen to them on the leftist Bible study podcast The Word in Black and Red.
