  • SO GOOD

    This is such a rich and beautiful podcast. They speak from the heart and I end up re-listening to episodes and find new gems to mediate on. There’s so much soul and theological reflection. This has become one of my favorite podcasts. I found through Rose Percy’s “A Gentle Landing” and am so grateful!
