Isle of Misfits podcast

Kathleen Maher, the writing machine, joins us again, to talk about her latest book in the Sons of the Shenandoah series, The Chaplain's Daughter.... It's a great conversation, about daughters, sons, femininity, masculinity... and even Gone With the Wind trivia!

It's 2 for one day here on the Isle, and a special interview with Justin Jones, Spiritual Formation Pastor at Eastern Hills Church in Buffalo, NY and Sherrill Auker,Sustain Division Director of Overland Missions. They co-wrote a book together, about what else, farming and this thing called evangelism. You think you know all about it from all the parables, I know... Well, think again... and listen in!

There's something in us that clings to hope, isn't there? Why is that? Is it just wishful thinking? Our guest today says an emphatic "No". And we Misfits think she makes a good case. Listen for yourself, to this hopeful conversation with Sarah Beckman.

You know that talk you need to have... but want to avoid having? Well, before you have it, listen in on this conversation with Lori Stanley Roeleveld for tools that just might help. You're welcome!

Love is a many splendored, and pretty darned difficult thing... especially when you're loving a spouse that's SO unlike you. Fortunately, Karen Ehman is here to help us out, with practical wisdom to help you stay crazy in love... the way it should be!

You'd think a chat about beauty would be kinda, well, fluff. But you'd be WRONG. Listen in on this IMPORTANT conversation with author Christie Purifoy about finding, absorbing and reflecting the beauty all around us, wherever we are.

Stasi Eldredge is back on the Isle (yes, she really came back!) to have an amazing follow up conversation about INTERPRETING the events of our lives. It's one of those conversations that could change your life. Yes, it could!

Oh, the joy! Literally! Stasi graciously pays a visit to the Isle to talk all about what exactly she means by DEFIANT JOY (it sounds angry, but it's not!)... and she's such a good sport, she even plays our Stupid Game.. So there you go. Joy for everyone!

Tis the season for gift giving!

At last, the parenting advice you never asked for, yet somehow desperately need... from self proclaimed non-expert, but nonetheless hilarious author, parent and pig owner (not necessarily in that order), James Breakwell.
