We are back!
We took a little hiatus to recuperate after a full Spring and Summer seasons, but Kat is back with an incredible new interview about disability and the church with Dr. Amy Kenny! If you haven't read Amy's book My Body is Not a Prayer Request yet, you 100% should. She is brilliant and hilarious and her work is a much-needed gift to the church.
