The Eucharist, Being a Female Priest in the ACNA, and Navigating Church Divisions

In this episode, I'm joined by Rev. Hannah Miller King to discuss how understanding the Eucharist can change how we see the entirety of the Christian life. We talk about grief, community, and divisions in the church along the way as we explore what the Eucharist really means. Join Me on the Camino!: https://www.gospelsimplicity.com/pilg...
