What Is to Prevent Me?

What happens when someone the Bible says doesn’t belong finds themselves at the center of the Gospel? In this episode, I reflect on the story of the Ethiopian eunuch in Acts 8—a powerful, excluded figure who dares to ask, “What is to prevent me from being baptized?” This is a meditation on radical belonging, the Spirit that goes ahead of us, and the kind of faith that still makes room for those the Church has often pushed aside. Especially as Pride Month approaches, this is a word of welcome for those who’ve been told they’re not enough. Nothing prevents you.
