The story we tell ourselves is a podcast about the narratives we create, live, grieve, and hope by. Every two weeks, a new guest brings their expertise on topics such as emotionally healthy spirituality, burnout in ministry, deconstructing and reconstructing faith, and church leadership in a politically charged environment. The podcast addresses the tensions faced in ministry and life as women, leaders, Salvationists, and followers of Jesus.
