We all love the idea of church — until people are involved. Because where there are people, there’s mess. But even in that mess, grace still shows up.

Episode Summary: In this honest and heartfelt episode, Cody takes a seat at the messy table of church life — where good intentions sometimes collide, and grace has to do its hardest work.

Through stories from his years in ministry, he explores what happens when the body of Christ hurts, heals, and learns together. You’ll hear about the quiet faithfulness of his late friend Tim Bartlow and Porchlight Grace, the lessons learned from a blunt but steadfast mentor, and the long road of grace through years of discipleship with a young man who didn’t give up — or get given up on.
