Listen "Too Much Positivity, Smoothness, and Ted Lasso"
Episode Synopsis
Everyone loves Ted Lasso. But Andy thinks that this points to a bigger issue in our culture & church.
When we're always trying to be positive and smooth, life becomes an exhausting performance where we hide our jagged edges. And this isn't always healthy, and it's definitely not the point of the Gospel.
