Welcome to Little Faith - a podcast for parents who doubt.

Parenting is hella hard. And it's even harder when you can't answer any of their five bazillion questions about God, or why Jesus died, or where Grandma is now.

It's hard because we often don't know the answers ourselves, or because the deconstruction you have gone through has lead you to a much more expansive, beautiful, nuanced place.

Wherever you find yourself, you are welcomed here. Join us as we have interesting and important conversations around things that matter - to you, to your community, and to your kids.
