Brooke is a minister, social worker and the host of her own podcast, The Divine Audacity Podcast. Question for the Week:There has been a lot of talk and comments about Rihanna's Super Bowl halftime show performance. Specifically, her pregnancy and comparing her to other performers.

Peters, Author of Post-Traumatic JesusGuest Question:We often forget the trauma that Jesus experienced throughout his life and the trauma of the context of the world he lived in, instead choosing to focus on his love, miracles and the “happier” parts of his story. How are we to understand this trauma, both personal and more generalized as modern Christians? Post-Traumatic Jesus For Listening Guides, click here!Got a question for us?
