Podcast Overview

From the Christian Century magazine ( christiancentury.org ), a podcast where we go in search of voices and perspectives that inform and expand a life of faith. Join your host Amy Frykholm for conversations with theologians, authors, and searchers of all kinds. In Season One, we’ll go to the desert, a traditional place in the history of Christianity to begin searches. We’re exploring saints and sages, inner and outer landscapes, and the dynamics of searching and finding. In Search Of is inspired by a line from the poet Rainer Maria Rilke. “You see,” says the poet, “I am one who likes to look for things.” This is a show for searchers and seekers, for those who dream of outlandish quests and those who live as pilgrims to the everyday.
