    (Listening from Colorado, USA)

    As a counselor and father to nuerospicy individuals I love what is being done here to bring into conversation the engagement and embrace of all nuerotypes by the Christin faith community. Getting to take a seat and learn from people trying to punch through the veil of separation between neurotypical and nuerospicy faith experience is delightful and enriching. Thanks for the work!
