Summary
When Dave Stovall, formerly of the band Audio Adrenaline met Pastor Bobby Harrington, Dave was a progressive Christian who had already been through deconstruction.

Dave and Bobby will join me to talk about what that journey looked like, and take your questions live. Join us on Monday, May 23rd at 5pm pacific/ 7pm central/ 8pm eastern on Facebook and Youtube!
