City of Bridges Podcast - season one – episode 0.5 – Unity is Our Why

With this humble podcast, we’re leaning into unity and reconciliation. We’re inviting Christians and spiritual seekers of all kinds to spend time under this “big tent” of Ancient Christianity. ✝️

We’ll do that by sharing our personal experiences and discussing ancient theology in a contemporary way. 🤼‍♂️
