Stories from the Sidelines with Malinda Fugate

Every believer is made in God's image, regardless of their role.
1

Malinda Fugate, author and Children’s pastor, is on Theology Meets World to discuss with Jake Doberenz about the the often-overlooked biblical characters who play significant roles in God's narrative. They discuss the pressures of being a 'main character' in faith, the lessons learned from working with children, and the hope found in the sidelines of Scripture. Malinda emphasizes the value of listening, the equality of all believers, and the need to redefine what it means to be a hero in faith.
