Summary

Jesus asked 100x more questions than he answered, so questions must have an important role to play in spiritual growth. Why don't they always feel welcome at church? Andrea Forsythe joins us to discuss asking better ones—questions that can help us see ourselves more clearly, and point to ways we might grow in love and understanding as individuals, and as a church.

0:00.0	Welcome to at last she said it. A podcast where women of faith come together to
0:06.1	acknowledge that it's complicated and support each other while we figure it out.
0:11.0	Tell us Andrea, what do you know?
