The De/Reconstructing Parent
with Sarah Turner & Karen Clark
Sarah Turner and Karen Clark take the hosting reins to share their de/reconstructing faith journey and how, primarily through parenting, they began to rethink who God is and their approach to scripture, church, and ministry.
From Harry Potter and the college years to church life – the good, the bad, and the ugly, they talk about how parenting for connection and living an honest relationship with a loving God, is the most transformative thing we can do in our lives, our kids lives, and in ministry.

“It’s been a little scary at times (learning) to be content in not having all the answers…I don’t have to know the why, I can just trust my Father.” Sarah
“It’s not safe to share, most of the time, in church.” Karen

“When you stop reading the bible through the lens of judgment, you stop being so judgmental.” Sarah

“A jack of all trades is a master of none, but oftentimes better than a master of one.”
What? I thought as the whole story illuminated my soul. Deep within me, I sensed my heavenly Father’s laughter—as though He plays the long game. We are rich in love.
I ran inside to find my wife and read the whole story. She grinned like she does when she’s right. It’s stunning…
