We’re always traveling somewhere. To work. From school. To another country. Back home. When we travel we get to know individuals who are different than we are, we hear stories that are different than ours, and the world becomes a smaller place. Let’s travel together, get to know people, and learn to love well.
I don’t do it super often (I don’t want to take advantage of them) but I love getting to host real-life friends on the show!This week you get to meet someone who was influential in Have Hope; Will Travel as we talk about a topic you’ve asked about for a long time: women in ministry.Anna is a seminary student, a youth pastor, and a friend of mine. Join us as we talk about the challenges and bright spots of being a woman in ministry (and she even pulls a fast one on me and starts interviewing me on my own show).

Questions addressed:
* What is spiritual abuse and why does it cut so deeply?
