Becoming a Brave Church with Elizabeth Hagan

Today, I have the pleasure of sharing my interview with Elizabeth Hagan. Elizabeth is a graduate of Duke Divinity School and has been a pastor for 15 years. She saw - and personally experienced - the isolation, loneliness, and shame that remains unspoken when Christians shy away from difficult conversations. She knew that the church could do better to foster a sense of acceptance and belonging. So she wrote Brave Church to open the door to the presence of God in difficult conversations.We talk all about what it means to have a brave church and why we need keep talking even when we disagree.
