Untidy Faith
You’re listening to the Untidy Faith podcast — where we have honest conversations and gentle encouragement for when following Jesus gets messy.
I’m your host, Kate Boyd, author, speaker, and gentle guide for Christians who are disentangling their faith from culture, rebuilding their relationship with Scripture, and desiring to find joy in following Jesus again.
There can be a life of faith after deconstruction. Let’s find yours together.

2 Samuel 5 | Balancing Altruism and Ambition
When it comes to leadership in churches, we've seen what happens when the balance between altruism and ambition tips in the wrong direction. Turns out we may have some of evangelicalism's favorite Bible characters to blame for that.
In 2 Samuel 5, we see another "success" of David, and yet we wonder, is he really the model we should look to?
And what happens in the real world when we read the Bible without deep consideration of how our interpretation affects real people?
