Balancing family life and church responsibilities can be difficult anytime. Add in a a faith crisis and, well, you can imagine how difficult that might be. Blake is back with Jeff Toone for part two of his story, and things only get worse before they get better. Jeff's faith crisis intensified during the COVID-19 pandemic, leading to a significant shift in his beliefs. He and his family found a new community in the Community of Christ, appreciating its inclusivity and support. Hear about Jeff’s emphasis on the importance of listening to minority voices and his hopes that the Community of Christ continues to make difficult but righteous decisions.
