S1E1: Mother and Child
Listen on:
Mark and Scott chat about four "proof-texts" from the Bible that are frequently used on multiple sides of the national debate around abortion and women's reproductive rights.
Intro hymn: "To the Work" Words by J. Crosby, performed by Edison Mixed Quartette, 1908.
New hymn: "Mother and Child" by Scott Simpson, 2022
Mark and Scott have been in conversation for fifty years. Born twenty-six days apart into the same complicated religious tradition, they grew up fluent in scripture and shape note singing —steeped in a culture of certainty and devotion.
They're descendants of elders, deacons, ministers —people compelled to interpret and proclaim the Word. They're still wondering what that word might mean.
Scott is a poet, author, educator, songwriter, and community creator. Mark, an educator, performer, provocateur. Together, they bring a shared curiosity to every encounter.

Faithfulcrum holds space at the intersection of faith, spirit, creativity, and meaning —asking: What now? What’s still worth saying? What remains, desperately, to be said?
