Summary

We LOVE a Friday bonus episode and this one is extra special! I get to talk to my friend, Dr. Carolyn Weber, who is the author of Surprised by Oxford. Y’all, when I tell you I fell in love with this book the first time I read it...I cannot wait for you to hear Carolyn talk about writing it and now seeing it come to life on the big screen. It is a FASCINATING conversation!
