Another awesome interview, this time with Karissa, the Angry Church Kid. You might think she's angry, because of her name, but she's actually very kind and inspiring and… well... yeah a little angry at some stuff too. Enjoy fireflies and summer camps and more!By Ryan Miller, Heidi Miller

Meet Abi (aka The Wanderer). She grew up in The Brethren Church. Being curious and a woman (in a world where women weren't allowed to have much of a voice) she started asking questions pretty early on and she hasn't stopped. From summer camps, worship music, and women covering their heads to… there probably isn't even a god. Or is there? Meet Abi. …

Some better language that might help to define the things that you’re feeling - especially nones, especially with family and friends who are not. It’s idols, freedom, cages, attachments, not knowing, and mystery and all that… but it’s really about getting bigger, bigger, bigger… always bigger, never smaller. That can be threatening but it shouldn’t…

A few encouraging words to the nones… from Ryan and Heidi… because we nones are the ones who might be hearing the song better than anyone. Right? Maybe…By Ryan Miller, Heidi Miller
