Sometimes, in our effort to get everything “right,” we forget to make space for the mystery, beauty, and wonder of who God is. In this two-part series, we’re sitting down with our friend and church member, Matt Bishop, for a fun, honest, and grace-filled conversation about deconstruction — a word that can feel heavy, but might just hold the key to a deeper, more faithful walk with Christ. Join us as we laugh, learn, and explore how questions can actually draw us closer to the heart of God. 💬✨www.arabumc.org/podcast
