The Oscars, Church and Cannabis, & The Need for Progressive Faith Media w/ Teri McDowell Ott

Send us Fan MailWe are changing up the podcast a little bit! Each week we will give our responses to what's happening in our world, culture and society and how all that relates to faith. As always, we will respond to a question and then invite a guest to respond to another question. The podcast is evolving to meet the needs of our listeners and we will always continue to do that!We got our hot takes on the The Oscars y'all! And other events that happened this week!  Question for the Week:Do you think the church and faith community should have a stance on the use of cannabis, also known as CBD? As the use of CBD for both recreational and medicinal use becomes more mainstream, it also becomes less "taboo". But in the church we often hold things as taboo for a long time. I'm not saying we should have a stance about the use of drugs, but recognizing that as times change, attitudes change too.Special Guest:Teri McDowell Ott, Editor & Publisher, Presbyterian OutlookGuest Question:We hear so much about the power and influence of conservative faith media and press, but not as much about progressive faith media. Why is that and what could initiate a change?  Resource Roundup:Presbyterian OutlookNecessary Risks: Challenges Privileged People Need to FaceFor Listening Guides, click here!Got a question for us?
