In this second part of our On The Other Hand podcast conversation with Elizabeth Henry-McKeever, Priest at St. Elizabeth’s Episcopal church in Little Rock, we venture from the beehive to the pulpit — and find more in common between the two than you might expect. Elizabeth draws surprising parallels between her work as a beekeeper and the life of a Christian community: how a hive cares for its most vulnerable, how new colonies form, and what bees might teach us about belonging. From there, she opens up about something far trickier than tending bees — tending a congregation through an era of political polarization. How does a priest preach honestly without turning the pulpit into a partisan platform? Elizabeth shares her approach, including why she starts with scripture rather than opinion, how she navigates disagreement within her church, and the difficult moments when respectful parting becomes the most loving option. She also recounts a memorable congregational debate over women distributing communion that reveals how faith communities can hold deep disagreement without severing relationship. Along the way, April reflects on diversity as a source of beauty — setting the stage for Part 3, where we'll turn to the role of Christianity in government and the harder question of what "common good" really means when we're working alongside people who see the world very differently. Tune in to hear what the bees know that the rest of us are still figuring out.
