| 15 Apr 2025 | 001 - PIETER VALK talks celibacy, founding a monastery, and the missed potential of single people in the Church. | 00:41:47 | |
Pieter L. Valk is the Founder and Director of Equip your Community, a ministry that that trains and helps churches tobecome places where LGBT+ people are embraced and thrive according to historic sexual ethics. He is also a founding member of the Nashville Family of Brothers; a modern monastery of men committed to celibacy and leveraging their singleness for service to the Church and their community. He is also a licensed professional counselor. In this conversation, we talk about his story. We cover the things churches miss out on when they don't empower and elevate singles in church. We also consider the need to present celibacy as an option for people just as much as we present marriage.

| 18 Feb 2025 | What is the Grayzone - TRAILER | 00:04:07 | |
Ever wish your pastor, leader, or friends would just "Go There" when discussing complex, raw topics in culture and faith? In the Grayzone, we GO THERE. Black and white answers are usually lazy and underdeveloped. To get to Truth, we have to put in a lot of work while remaining kind, compassionate, and loving. Is it possible to stay faithful to Biblical Truth and wisdom while also being Christlike and loving? We think think so. | |||
