Eps. 194: When Pain is in the Present; Guest, KJ Ramsey

Today is a conversation with KJ Ramsey about her book “This Too Shall Last: Finding Grace When Suffering Lingers”. KJ is a licensed professional therapist and someone who also lives with a painful and debilitating chronic illness since young adulthood. Her empathy and wisdom are hard-won. I first found KJ on Twitter—like a candle in a dark room—and delving into her work has been a true treasury of insights, hope, and kindness.

Eps. 172: Wild Hope; Guest, Gayle Boss

My guest is author Galye Boss. Her stunning Advent book about how various North American animals wait out and survive the dark, cold winter was an instant classic. Now, she releases a fitting second book, this time for Lent. This too, is another gorgeously-illustrated book that features 24 amazing animals of the world that are vanishing from existence. (David G. Klein, Illustrator) Our conversation covers topics in both her books and a lovely reading from Wild Hope by Gayle.
