Synopsis
Created by co-hosts Robert Brown and Ian Heisler, In the Margin is a reading-based podcast about Christian civic engagement and public witness. In each episode, Ian and Robert (and occasional guests) consider the contributions of various authors to an ongoing conversation about how the Church can love, serve, and speak grace and truth to its neighbors. With the help of these authors, they ask, What does it mean for Christians to be here? What should it look like to be in the world yet not of the world? How are we to live, read, and converse in the margin? Join us as we talk about being in the world in an otherworldly way.
