Porch Talk with Father Aaron
Welcome! Here we have conversations where the Christian faith interacts (or intersects) with topics found outside of the typical, safe church environment. We wanted to address the question: "What happens when a priest talks with people of the community about topics that are important to them, but not necessarily what you might hear Sunday morning?" Our church porch (or patio) was designed to facilitate these meaningful and authentic conversations, so we called this "Porch Talk." Join us!

Seeking Elected Office: A Conversation with the Challenger
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
What drives us to seek elected office, challenging the incumbent and earning the trust of voters? It's not always easy to articulate that in a sound bite, so Fr. Aaron spoke with John Rogers, who is seeking election to the Houston County Commission Chairman's position. John Rogers is running to unseat and replace the the current chairman, Brandon Shoupe (see episode 14). They spoke about John's background, what moved him to seek this position, and what decisions he might have performed differently if he were elected to the position.
