In this episode we continue our conversation with author and apologist Mary Jo Sharp, discussing the importance of the local church, what to look for when choosing a church, and the hope we have despite the brokenness we encounter. Mary Jo, a former atheist, was drawn by the beauty she found in the Christian story, but because of her experiences in the church she found herself questioning the truth of Christianity. Through her journey of doubt she discovered afresh the truth, beauty and irresistible hope of the Gospel.
