Refreshing
Love Emilie and Ashlie’s expansive approach to experience light and spirituality wherever it is found!
Bring All The Good…
President Gordon B Hinckley said it best many years ago. “Bring all the good you have and let’s see if we can build on it.”
To me, that is one of the most non-threatening ways to come together as different peoples.
Zero downside. Thanks for stretching outside your comfort zone ladies.
Love it!
I have wanted to learn more about other faith traditions and beliefs for many years, but I have struggled with making time or taking time away from other commitments - especially on Sundays. Thank you for making the time for me and allowing me to follow along. I look forward to learning from those you interview and I am excited to hear more about your experiences. Thank you!
