| Title Short | The Sacred Slope Podcast Recording- Asking the questions you were told not to |
| Venue | Goosecast |
| Experience Description | In this special episode of The Sacred Slope, Alexis Rice sits down with a special guest at the Wild Goose Festival for an honest, unscripted conversation about faith in a time when Christianity often feels defined by fear, certainty, and control.
After a year of conversations with clergy and believers across denominations and cultures, Alexis opens the floor for an AMA with a progressive pastor—asking the questions many people have carried quietly for years. What do progressive Christians actually believe about hell? Do all Christians see it the same way? What about creation, reproductive rights, the death penalty, queer theology, or how we are called to care for immigrants, the sick, and the poor?
Together, they explore how faith can move beyond rigid frameworks into something rooted in love, justice, curiosity, and belonging—voices and perspectives many people have never been exposed to.
This episode invites listeners to wrestle with the questions they’ve been told not to ask, expand their understanding, and consider what it might look like to reclaim a version of Christianity that looks more like Jesus.
You’re not alone in your questions. And you’re not alone in your faith. |
