Author Brian McLaren says, “At Wild Goose, people flock together to celebrate a way of life rooted in faith, justice, creativity, and beauty. It’s like a family reunion where you meet relatives you never knew you had.”
Dr. Robyn Henderson-Espinoza says, “It is the opportunity to build bridges across lines of radical difference.”
Speaker and author Frank Schaeffer notes, “People can ask questions that they usually keep to themselves and feel safe about doing so.”
