About this episode
Chris (founding editor of the ERB) spoke with first-time podcast guest (and one of our most-frequently mentioned writers!) Kathleen Norris and returning guest Amy Julia Becker, regarding some common themes in their published writing. They speak about disability, what it means to be human, and their experiences accompanying family members with disabilities. Their conversation is humble, sincere, vulnerable and light-hearted, and listeners will find their honest reflections encouraging.Books Mentioned in this Episode:If you’d like to order any of the following books, we encourage you to do so from Hearts and Minds Books(An independent bookstore in Dallastown, PA, run by Byron and Beth Borger) The Cloister Walk by Kathleen NorrisAcedia & Me: A Marriage, Monks & a Writer's Life by Kathleen NorrisDakota: A Spiritual Geography by Kathleen NorrisAmazing Grace: A Vocabulary of Faith by Kathleen NorrisA Good and Perfect Gift: Faith, Expectations & a Little Girl Named Penny by Amy Julia BeckerRebecca Sue: A Sister's Reflections on Faith, Disability & Love by Kathleen NorrisWhen Helping Hurts: How to Alleviate Poverty Without Hurting the Poor...And Yourself by Steve Corbett and Brian FikkertTo Be Made Well: An Invitation to Wholeness, Healing & Hope by Amy Julia BeckerThe Hospitality of Need: How Depending on One Another Helps Us Heal & Grow Together by Kevan Chandler & Tommy SheltonThe Dignity of Dependence: A Feminist Manifesto by Leah Libresco SargeantHow to Read a Book: A Novel by Monica WoodDo Not Judge Anyone: Desert Wisdom for a Polarized World by Isaac SlaterSmall Things Like These by Claire KeeganGhost Trail (film)
