In this episode I interview Sarah Rex, the minister of music and worship at Columbine United Church. If you know Sarah she has a lot of energy and vision. Sarah has a compelling story to tell about her life growing up in the conservative evangelical church and how she moved away from fundamentalism in her adult years to embrace a progressive view of God. Sarah get's pretty excited in this episode. She gets so wound up she drops an F-bomb. Just pretend you hear the beep. Enjoy the interview!
