    Straight From The Heart About Racial Injustice, White Privilege and Why Black Lives Matter

    Straight From The Heart About Racial Injustice, White Privilege and Why Black Lives Matter

    Christine is so happy to welcome Sarah Lubach back on the podcast for this important conversation about race and the events of the past few weeks.
    We discuss what we're learning, how we're failing, who's inspiring us and steps we can take to support the Black Lives Matter movement. It's a frank discussion about our own shortcomings and a time of asking questions about white privilege, anti-racism, defunding the police and the next steps we can all be taking to support (and enact) real change in our world.
    We hope you'll listen and join in the conversation.
    (Plus, like always, What's Making Our Hearts Beat!)

    How are we handling our grief? Why do we feel so judged? What resentments are we carrying that will cause damage? And is there anything we can do to protect our relationships?? (Please say yes.)

    Straight From The Heart About A Different Sort Of Holy Week

    It's holy week! That seven days between Palm Sunday and Easter, filled with reflection, worship and traditions.
    How will COVID-19 change our approach to this coming weekend? I have mixed feelings and some apprehension about it.
    But, I'm challenging myself (and you!) to make this a holy week to remember by doing one small thing!

Beautiful words

Fun, witty, sometimes serious, charming combination of thoughts, current happenings and feels. I look forward to hearing this take on Midwest life and am encouraged by Christine’s desire to live purposeful. 💕

Easy warm hearted

I am so moving listening to this podcast in my current season. I have loved both the old format and new format. I love the transparency and God encouragement Meggison provides. The length of the show is enough to keep me engaged and I’m not have to pause and come back when I have short commutes or disruptions. I love having a local podcast with subjects that apply to life.
