Nuance: Being Faithful in the Public Square

In this episode of Nuance, host Case talks with Trent Haggard — a third-generation Missourian row crop farmer — about the deep connection between faith, farming, and community life. They explore the spiritual calling of agriculture, the everyday challenges farmers face, and why stewardship of the land matters more than ever.

From sustainable farming practices and the impact of new technology, to the role churches can play in supporting local farmers, Trent offers unique insights drawn from both his experience in the field and his Christian faith. This conversation sheds light on how agriculture shapes communities, feeds the world, and nurtures the soul.

Nuance is a podcast of The Collaborative where we wrestle together about living our Christian faith in the public square. Nuance invites Christians to pursue the cultural and economic renewal by living out faith through work every facet of public life, including work, political engagement, the arts, philanthropy, and more. 

Each episode, Dr. Case Thorp hosts conversations with Christian thinkers and leaders at the forefront of some of today's most pressing issues around living a public faith. 

Our hope is that Nuance will equip our viewers with knowledge and wisdom to engage our co-workers, neighbors, and the public square in a way that reflects the beauty and grace of the Gospel.
