Food and Faith Podcast

December 8, 2020

Back in April when What Grew in Larry’s Garden was first published, my excitement about the book was tempered with disappointment that I could not celebrate its launch as planned with family and friends. But there was consolation in knowing that I was by no means alone in this experience.

I am part of a FB group for writers, and it helped me a lot to be in the company of others who found themselves in a similar position. One such sister-author was Anna Woofenden, whose book This is God’s Table: Finding Church Beyond the Walls, was also released this past spring.

Recognizing that we were both writing about growing food and community, Anna recently invited me to be a guest on the Food and Faith Podcast. She and her co-host, Derrick Weston, welcomed me warmly–the first children’s book author to join them–into conversation about the power of stories, the influence of our personal geography, what gives us hope these days, and much more.
