Customer Reviews
Really excellent
Austin is so well spoken and has a way of pulling out the depths of what his guests say. Highly recommend the listen!
So valuable!!
Thank you so much for putting this podcast out there!! This is so helpful at this time. As a disciple in the ICOC since 1989 this podcast and the spacemakers really give me hope for my kids “kingdom kids” in finding a healthy faith. We are in process of exiting church which is super challenging for so many reasons. Thank you 🙏🏼
Balanced Portrayal
This pod cast invites listeners to step outside the box of church culture and confront how an obsession with certainty can lead many well meaning Christians astray. I’m thankful for the opportunity to listen, reflect, forgive myself and others, and continue the journey towards healing as I crumple papers of my own. Thank you Austin for your bold and sensitive critique of the types of toxicity that can exist in church organizations. I pray that listeners will be inspired to create healthy places of worship as they lean into curiosity, acceptance, and faith. Keep up the great work!
