About this listen

In this episode of Sacred Rebel Voices, Jerry Zehr sits down with Alexandra Hudson—author of The Soul of Civility and founder of Civic Renaissance—for a thoughtful conversation about what civility really means in a fractured public life.Rather than politeness or silence, Alexandra invites us to consider civility as courage: the willingness to engage across difference without surrendering conviction, dignity, or truth.


Together, Jerry and Alexandra explore how civility can become a form of moral resistance, a practice of fierce love, and a way of showing up faithfully in a fearful world.

This conversation is part of Sacred Rebel Voices, a series of deep, reflective dialogues with thinkers, artists, and leaders who are reimagining what it means to live with courage, compassion, and integrity today.
