Jeff Chu: Full Circle Faith

Writer Jeff Chu was raised in a devout Chinese Baptist community, yet struggled to reconcile being gay with the conservative faith of his family. And the feeling of not-quite-belonging gave his life a strong purpose. He became a journalist and a pastor determined to make communities a place where you don’t actually have to “fit in” to belong.  In this episode, Kate and Jeff discuss: 
Navigating certainty and doubt when ambiguity is so uncomfortable
Why great resumes sometimes mask lives of pain
How Jeff has discovered grace for himself and his family (and others who many have different versions of faithfulness)
