Theology of Place

What does it mean to be steadfast? How does vocation relate to location? In this episode, Gretchen and Katie discuss the theology of place, as it relates to the ongoing conversation of patience and hope.

What does it mean to stay, and stay in freedom without compulsion? When is it time to cut ties in a situation and leave? Using farming as an example, they talk about the influence of nostalgia on our perceptions of things, but also the work of serving the area where God has placed you--weeds and all.

This conversation has many rabbit trails and ends up in the book of James.

Some mentions:

Wendell Berry's poems, Hannah Coulter, Jayber Crow
