More with Nikki Dutton76. Long Days of Small Things – Catherine McNielCatherine McNiel writes about finding God in the real world we live in daily calling these observations "everyday epiphanies." Examples include what we learn about life from the changing seasons, how gardening can connect community, and motherhood as a spiritual discipline (AKA when you don't have much quiet or time in your days). In this conversation, we talk through all of this plus what human interaction looks like during this slice of history and how to engage neighbors, strangers, and enemies well. I think you'll love it.
