Play {full} ness (Part 2)
Woven
This month, we wrap-up our summer series on play by sharing what we've each learned about the spiritual discipline of playfulness over the last couple of months. We also share the 2nd half of our interview with Courtney Ellis. If you didn't listen to our July episode, go back and listen, Courtney is a fount of wisdom when it comes to the art of playfulness and its importance to the Christian life. Also, in our introduction to Courtney's interview, we share some big news about the future of Woven!

Play {full} ness (Part 1)
Woven
In July and August on Woven, we are talking all things "play". For our July episode, we discuss our own barriers to play and the areas where we'd like to become more playful. We also challenge each other to do something playful over the next month. To enhance our discussion, we also talk to Courtney Ellis, the author of Happy Now: Let Playfulness Lift Your Load and Renew Your Spirit.

Laugh It Out
Woven
Woven is taking a short break in June, but we still want to share a little something with our listeners. Since we're talking about fun and playfulness in our July and August episodes, we asked Christie Cuthbert, author and friend of Woven, to read an excerpt from her book Mom I Farted in Church for our June episode. Christie is an expert in finding the humor and fun in parenting. We hope you enjoy this reading, and check out Christie and all her work.

Still Rolling Stones
Woven
It's finally May! With a new season and the end of a school year approaching, lots of transitions are on the horizon. This month we talk life transitions- how we handle them differently, how we can prepare for them better and how we can keep growing even in times of transition. We also talk summer and share some ideas on surviving and maybe even thriving in this new season.

BONUS EPISODE: Mother's Day
Woven
Bonus Episode! Our May episode comes out on Tuesday, but in honor of Mother's Day, we thought we'd drop a bonus discussion on mothering- different types of mothering, our strengths and weaknesses as mothers, the Proverbs 31 woman (spoiler alert: it's not what you think), and how Mother's Day isn't always the easiest day for a lot of people. Enjoy!

Slow Growing
Woven
For our April episode, we process what it means to grow slowly in different aspects of our lives. We talk about the areas where we struggle to grow low and slow versus fast and flashy. We also interview Jennifer Dukes Lee about her new book Growing Slow: Lessons on Un-Hurrying Your Heart from an Accidental Farm Girl. In our third segment, we talk about gardening, slow cooking, and books that are helping us to lean into the spring "growing" season and Eastertide.

Begin Again
Woven
As we inch into spring, towards Easter, and slowly out of the COVID crisis, we talk about what we've learned in the past year and what it looks like to add things back into our lives after much has been stripped away. What does it mean to begin again? We also interview home designer, Shannon Acheson, about her new book Home Made Lovely. In our last segment we talk charcuterie, Tim Keller's new book on Easter, and more.

Spring Cleaning
Woven
Our February episode is here, and so is Lent! That means it's time to do some Spring Cleaning, and we're not talking about the dusting the baseboards and cleaning out the pantry type of Spring Cleaning. This month, we discuss how to Spring Clean internally. What does it mean to unclutter our spirts, souls, hearts, minds, etc?
