The Balance of Gray
The Balance of Gray Podcast exists for one reason - to strengthen the faith of truth seekers by discussing raw topics, asking hard questions, and giving honest answers as we navigate the gray areas that challenge so many believers. Of course, we will be goofing around a little bit too, because it just makes life more fun that way! With the Word of God in one hand, and a microphone in the other, join the discussions that need to be had as we grow in truth, knowledge, and grace along the way.
