The day after the 2024 election, Skye is joined by Producer Mike Stralow and CEO Jon Houghton to respond to people's sent-in questions and live chat messages. He discusses how people who aren't happy with the result of the race can grieve and process the results—and why no matter where you are politically, you need to intentionally seek a church community.

I'm Canadian not living in America, so I have some distance from y'alls mania, but still do feel pretty blue that people continue to choose fear mongering and hate instead of something better, something new, even though we all know that hating and fearing get us nowhere. However, I also felt relief he won so the angry white guys with guns wouldn't declare election fraud How many times does history have to show us this before we take a risk and try something new? Trump deliberately used fear and hate as a tool to collect votes, but how does he put that back in the bag and get some real work done on economic problems like inflation? Not possible. As Taylor Swift says, the "haters gonna hate hate hate." I'm an immigrant and a brown woman, so I also feel somewhere deep down that I had better start figuring out how to protect myself in case some crazy angry Trump supporter with a gun decides that it's my fault he can't have something he wants, and thinks the optimal course of action is to shoot me, my parents, my kids, slander us and so on. Do I and "mine" need more guns than them? Self-defense training? As a musician, I have worked in psychiatric facilities and group homes and have seen just how strong and unpredictable paranoid and psychotic people are. I had to have special training to anticipate and defend. Is this what women, immigrants and people of colour need going forward, to operate in society regularly? I have a growing sense that I have to be extra vigilant in public for my personal safety. This goes counter to Christian teaching, where my safety lies only in loving my enemy. I am experiencing significant turmoil due to this paradox within. I need to be true to the teachings of Jesus 150%, but I am not gonna roll over in the face of social, legal, & physical backlash. Please discuss and help. :) :)
