The Backstory Podcast

Join hosts Josh Packard (Future of Faith), Shannon Hopkins (Rooted Good), and Elizabeth Coffee (Lake Institute) for a candid look at the messy, beautiful work of narrative change. Created specifically for the community of Lilly Endowment Storytelling grantees, The Backstory pulls back the curtain on our own projects—wins, struggles, and all.

Each episode, we sit down as friends to swap insights, interview fellow grantees from the field, and explore how we can ethically and effectively tell stories that shape the future of faith. It’s less about polished presentations and more about "how the sausage is made." Come listen, learn, and let’s figure this out together.
