Student Loan Forgiveness, Attractiveness & It's All About General Assembly w/ Kate Trigger Duffert and Kerry Rice
Show Notes

This week, we catch you up on what's been going on with us! Yes, we got to spend time together over the weekend! And we talk about the great work that the PC(USA) is doing in assisting people with their student loan forgiveness!

Question for the Week:
You have talked on the podcast before about how a church's dress code says something about a congregation's culture and values.  But what about the attractiveness of pastors and faith leaders?

Special Guests:
Kate Trigger Duffert, Manager for GA Business and Per Capita Promotion, PCUSA
Kerry Rice, Deputy Stated Clerk, Office of the General Assembly, PCUSA

Guest Question:
I have heard about the “General Assembly” of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) before.  What is it exactly?  Is it a governing body or an agency?  Is it a representative democracy?  Further, how does the General Assembly process and structure reflect our Presbyterian values and how is it different from other Christian traditions?
