What is church? Before we can talk about what the church should be and is today, we need to understand how it all began. In part 1 of this 2-part series, I'm joined again by theologian, Canon Ian Elliott Davies, Rectory, St. Thomas the Apostle Episcopal Church in Los Angles, California as we explore how the concept of church began after Jesus' death on the Cross. Join us as we explore the messy beginnings of Christianity and how our beliefs and traditions passed on for generations. This is Weeds and Wheat. Welcome.

God is always trying to speak to us. We need only listen. In the season finale of Weeds and Wheat, I take you on a personal journey through which I learned to listen to God. I loved, reconciled, and understood myself so that I could share this experience with you. I pray this message begins your journey of loving, reconciling, and understanding others. We start our outward exploration together in Weeds and Wheat, Season 2 next.

The talented Kara Morgan returns to the show! In this episode, we dig deeper into Kara's experience reconciling what she learned growing up with what she knows now.

I am thrilled to welcome my friend, Kara Morgan, to the show!

Join us as we learn from Kara's journey together.
