David Jerome (AKA Play Write) talks about his "loss of faith" moment, the impact it had upon his sense of belonging, and how it led him to truth-seeking in all contexts. We discuss the moral moment the world is having, cancel culture, and the downside of inclusion. David casts his light on the concept of grace and the nature of all things and all that is. In this timely and thought-provoking episode, David gives listeners much to consider.
