Shift Happens
In a world increasingly marked by division, cruelty, and chaos, Shift Happens is your guide to navigating the social and political turmoil of our time with hope, integrity, and courage. Each week, we bring you conversation with leaders, thinkers, and change-makers who are on the frontline of resisting white Christian nationalism, dehumanization, polarization, and apathy.
Together, we explore how to confront these challenges without mirroring them- how to resist cruelty without becoming cruel, combat anger without being consumed by it, and dismantle systems of injustice while remaining grounding in compassion and humanity.
Shift Happens isn't just about understanding the world; it's about empowering you to shape it. Tune in and discover practical insights, inspiring stories, and the tools you need to resist with resilience, love and purpose.
Change is possible because shift happens.

Brent Roberts
Joe talks to Brent Roberts. Brent was the college superstar during their days together at their ministry school. He was on stage for all the things and up front representing the school. None of us knew that he was in a life long struggle with his sexuality. Join us as we walk through Brent's story and how he reconciled his faith and sexuality.
You can find Brent on Facebook Brent Roberts and you can find his podcast Shipfaced: Confession of a Drunken Cruise Director on all the podcast platforms.
