Sacred Garden: Cultivating Religious Literacy
Between the Books: a Farewell to Genesis
Between Seasons 1 and 2, I want to pause and say thank you ─ for walking with me through Genesis, for listening, and for letting these ancient stories speak into your lives.
In this short bridge episode, I share a small change for how we'll connect going forward: instead of scattered social media updates, our conversations will happen together in the comments section of each episode. That's where your reflections, questions, and insights can become part of a shared community space.
And then, we look ahead. Genesis gave us the story of beginnings ─ of family, covenant, and promise. Now, Exodus opens with a nation in chains. It's story of promises tested in suffering and fulfilled in fire.
Season 2 of Sacred Garden begins on September 11th. I'd love to hear from you before then: what questions are you carrying from Genesis? What are you most curious about as we step into Exodus? Share your thoughts in the comments ─ and let's start the conversation now.
