Summary

Kate Bowler is joined by Nadia Bolz-Weber and Sarah Bessey for an honest, funny, and deeply tender conversation about what it means to be people of faith right now. When the world feels overwhelming—personally and globally—they explore small acts of love, embodied community, and “cozy faith” as resistance to despair. From knitting circles and prayer shawls to church, doubt, and the stubborn choice to keep loving the world, this episode is about finding hope in ordinary, human ways.

1:22.7

Our ancestors would be confused.

1:25.4

They use their food scraps as compost, or as animal feed, or in

1:29.3

weird soups, all the stuff we did before garbage was invented. But composting is hard work.

1:37.1

Living with a bucket of rotten food on your counter is gross. Most food goes in the trash because
