Hosted by Sojourners President Rev. Adam Russell Taylor, this free webinar will feature Bishop Budde, author of We Can Be Brave: Decisive Moments in Life and Faith, for a timely conversation about courage, faith, and the moments that call us to speak and act.
This is not only a conversation for clergy or public leaders. It is for anyone trying to live faithfully in this moment.

It is for those who are asking:
How do I speak truth without losing compassion?
How do I remain grounded when public life feels overwhelming?
How do I practice courage in my family, congregation, workplace, neighborhood, or community?
How do we build a more loving and just world when so much around us feels fractured?
Bishop Budde’s witness reminds us that bravery does not always mean speaking loudly. Sometimes bravery means refusing cruelty. Sometimes it means telling the truth with a steady voice. Sometimes it means choosing mercy when contempt is easier. And sometimes it means believing that another future is still possible — and acting like it.
