Eucharist ChurchAndy Squyres in ConversationHello Podcasties. Unfortunately our sermon podcast failed to record this week, but in lieu of a sermon on greed we present to you this wonderful conversation between poet/priest Andy Squyres and Nina Schuurman-Drenth (one of the pastors at Eucharist).
This conversation was full and rich, touching on topics such as de/re-constructing faith, the role of church in the modern world, and a lot of musings about art and the creative process. It's well worth a listen.
Enjoy.2023-10-311h 04
