God's Heart Breaks Too (Bea Connaghan)
“Where is God in this moment?” “How do you encounter God in an office?” “What path are you on right now?” Bea Connaghan humbly and thoughtfully invites us to ask ourselves these questions as she meditates on the words and legacy of Teresa of Ávila and ponders how to “spot God in uncommon—or, rather, very common places.” Listen in to this wonderful episode with Bea.

Endlessness. Transience. Art. In this episode, Cullan muses on his apprenticeship to impermanence and takes us on a journey through the streets of Berlin. The divine is there, Cullan shows us, in the quality of light, in the growth of rogue flowers, in the fragile sketches of male bodies.

Walking with God (Victoria Brooks)
How do we practice justice? How do we exercise kindness? How do we walk with God? Join me on this journey with Victoria Brooks as we turn to the Book of Micah and explore its powerful calls to action. Speaking truth to power and maintaining humility go hand in hand here. “Humility is that which keeps us close to the ground…that which makes us grounded and created creatures of a loving God.”

Am I My Brother's Keeper? (Bonnie Cramer)
What does it mean to be your brother's keeper? In this episode, Bonnie Cramer guides us through the story of Cain and Abel, tying in current issues of racism, white supremacy, and the COVID-19 pandemic. "I feel that this question of who is your brother and what is your responsibility is laid out as the religious question. It's the question that all of Torah is struggling to answer." Tune in for a profound journey with Bonnie.
