    In this episode of We Are Vineyard, Caleb Maskell talks with Tish Harrison Warren about her new book What Grows In Weary Lands, doing all the “good Christian” things but feeling burnt out in the Christian life, the space between depression and thriving, and what we can learn from the desert fathers and mothers.

She is the author of several books, including Liturgy of the Ordinary, which won Christianity Today’s 2018 Book of the Year, and Prayer in the Night, which won Christianity Today’s 2022 Book of the Year and the 2022 ECPA Christian Book of the Year.
