Survival of the Fit Jun 07, 2023

Show notes

Did Darwin really say survival is of the "fittest"? and what does it mean to be at home in who we are? Perhaps Jesus had some thoughts on this (as we can see from his interaction with the demon possessed man).

On Disability and The Church Aug 30, 2022

Show notes

We are back!

We took a little hiatus to recuperate after a full Spring and Summer seasons, but Kat is back with an incredible new interview about disability and the church with Dr. Amy Kenny! If you haven't read Amy's book My Body is Not a Prayer Request yet, you 100% should. She is brilliant and hilarious and her work is a much-needed gift to the church.
