My desire is to create space for compelling and complex conversations from a Jesus-centered perspective. As a pastor, there are some subjects that I do not always have the capacity to address on a Sunday morning. This podcast will be an opportunity to create space for some of those subjects.Please participate in the conversation and ask questions. As this community continues to grow, my hope is that many of the episodes will be shaped by your questions. No subject is off limits. Please e-mail all questions to scottlackey@newstorybuffalo.com.
