709 | What's Brewing Live Event: The Road to Welcoming and Affirming

Project Zion Podcast

The Road to Welcoming and Affirming is a long and winding road, but the travel is well worth it. Just ask our panelists: Nancy McClellan, Matt Bryant, and Humberto Tinsman. In this episode which originally aired as a live event on May 6, 2024, they sit down with co-hosts Linda Stanbridge and Blake Smith to talk about their journey. The lessons they learned ... the roadblocks they encountered ... and the blessings they continue to experience as a result of doing the hard work of engaging Harmony’s Welcoming and Affirming Program. Listen in, and find out how they are finding ways to truly live the Mission Prayer and several of Community of Christ’s Enduring Principles.
