Love & Acceptance When Beliefs Collide

Part 1 of a touching interview from my former radio show with Brad and Drew Harper. Brad is an evangelical theologian and seminary professor while Drew is his gay son. Listen to how these two navigated a loving relationship despite very opposing views on theology and homosexuality. This and the forthcoming part 2 are very touching episodes that show how you can have love and acceptance even when your beliefs collide. #comingout #fundamentalism
