Gwen and Steve recorded the podcast today about a prayer that took on great meaning and deeper insight during a difficult and dark time.
Their conversation today is an exploration of “The Welcome Prayer.” At a dark and tumultuous time in their lives, when they lost their grandson Tommy in death, they slid into a dark night. This one prayer offered light in the darkness. The writer Thomas Keating opened their hearts up to the power of this prayer and the consolation of letting go.

What does God have for each of us as we grow older? How do we embrace our aging in a culture that worships youth?
Steve chats with Sherill Hostetter today, and the conversation is a beautiful and honest look at what each of us will likely experience in our lives… and how we can all decide to grow older with grace and wisdom and approach aging as a spiritual pilgrimage.
