Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death: Psalm 23

About this episode

This episode explores the wisdom of Psalm 23 and how embracing the shadow of death can lead to transformative change and new life.

The shadow of death touches many places in our lives, yet our faith tradition has much to teach us about how to live courageously and fully by accepting, not denying, its presence. If we desire transformative change, some perspectives, attachments, misplaced hopes, and fantasies need to die. When we allow, and even help, some of these things to perish, their decomposition can create the soil for new life and faith to emerge. Join us as we walk through the wisdom of Psalm 23 together, allowing the Good Shepherd to lead us into new life.
