“An incredible display of careful, nuanced, and gifted story telling. In a time of political polarization and the struggle to understand what religious freedom means for the U.S., conversations regarding the real life impact of church teaching on things like family, marriage, sex, bodily autonomy, and LGBTQ topics tend to generate far more heat than light.
