SpokaneFāVS is proud to announce its latest feature “Ask An Evangelical.”

SpokaneFāVS Presents_This column will be co-authored by Pastor Rob Bryceson of Gathering House Church, and Elizabeth Backstrom, a member of the congregation.

Bryceson and Backstrom both consider themselves to be Evangelical Christians, but don’t always hold the same views on theological issues, which is why they both will offer responses to questions readers submit to the “Ask An Evangelical” column.

This will be the ninth “Ask A” column featured on SpokaneFāVS. Readers can also submit questions to “Ask An Atheist,” “Ask A Mormon,”Ask A Buddhist,” “Ask A Jew,”  “Ask A Religious Scientist,” “Ask A Muslim,” “Ask A Catholic” and “Ask An Eastern Orthodox Christian.”

Check back on SpokaneFāVS.com for a column by Bryceson further explaining the “Ask An Evangelical” column — particularly the term “Evangelical.”
