    I am so thankful for this podcast. I have always struggled to identify or follow any type of spiritual path. I was raised in the Catholic faith until my teen years when my parent’s divorced. Andrea has a talent for explaining complex content clearly. Her podcast has led me to so many resources, guests and authors. I listen every night and if I wake up in the middle of the night. I am so thankful…..Just what I needed at his point in my life.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Andrew Solomon on loving difference
Q: What drove you to write this book in the first place?
My editors at the New York Times Magazine asked me to write an article about Deaf culture, which shaped my understanding of both disability and culture.
Talk to Me Like I'm Someone You Love
Q: Why do the flashcards work better than verbal communication?
Because when we're upset, we often revert to a defensive stance that prevents us from listening; visual aids help reduce tension.
Talk to Me Like I'm Someone You Love
Q: Can you tell us a little bit about how you came to write this book and what it means to you?
The book contains flashcards meant to facilitate communication during upsets, helping people express their feelings authentically.
It ain't necessarily so
Q: What does it mean to live in Christ?
To live in Christ means to embody his message of love, friendship, and care for others, following his example of being a deeply human and sensitive person.
It ain't necessarily so
Q: What does Jesus save us from?
He saves us from being lost, from the absence of purpose and meaning in our lives.
