Where can one find a place of rest while wrestling with faith, gender, and sexuality? For Alex Guerrero, it came in the form of three “grandmas,” a house church, and the Community of Christ. In this episode of Fair Trade, Alex opens up with good friend, Brittany Mangelson, about his story of struggle and transition, and how a congregation’s willingness to listen and learn created the restful space he so deeply needed. As you listen, you’ll gain insights into how you too might create space where others might find rest on their journey.
