Enter the Grayzone

by Robby Ortiz

Enter the Grayzone is where our theories and biases go to die. We come face to face with real people and have to test what we believe. Where black and white answers do more harm than good. Where Truth is as necessary as Grace and there's NO clear pathway forward. In an increasingly complex and confusing world, Christians have the opportunity to boldly engage culture with Truthful living. We also have the responsibility of following in Christ's compassionate example. Conversations related to faith, culture, gender, suicide, moral failure, autism, addiction, family trauma, and so much more.
