-------------------------------
What does it really mean to be a Christian in today’s world of confusion and cultural contradictions? In this episode, Diane talks with Glen Pia, lead pastor at Rock Harbor Church, about his new book What’s a Christian? Anyway. How can ancient truths—like the Nicene Creed—help anchor our faith in a time when trust in the Church is wavering? Glen shares his perspective on the intersection of politics, faith, and community, and how believers can stay rooted without losing heart. Through personal stories and pastoral insight, he unpacks how to live with integrity and clarity in a complicated spiritual landscape. This conversation offers a thoughtful look at reclaiming what’s essential in the Christian journey.
