Molly Smith Interviews Rob Lee

What matters most to us in times of consequence? Is it wealth? Is it prestige and power? Is it likes or favorites?

My name is Rob Lee, I’m a pastor, public theologian, and author working at the intersection of faith and public life. I want this podcast to be a place where I interview those people who are exemplifying what it means to exist with complete abandon in this life.
