Love Thy Neighbor as Thyself...(but how do I love myself?)
CONTENT WARNING: this episode contains mentions of conversion therapy. Listener discretion advised.
Court and Betty sit down and talk the "golden rule" of treating others they way you'd like to be treated...or, in Christian terms, "love thy neighbor as thyself." But what exactly does it mean to love our neighbors as ourselves? And, do we even know how to love yourselves? Join Court and Betty and let wonder percolate together!

Percolating Wonder: TRAILER
Betty Nguyen and Courtney VonLindern both work for the same United Methodist Church organization but have never met each other in person. Through virtual meetings, they felt as though their time together felt a lot like grabbing a cup of coffee with a friend. They discovered that they enjoy brainstorming together about faith, ministry, and life and that they both value curiosity, compassion, mutual care, and support. Together, they wondered if they could open up their conversations with others so they could share their wonder with the world. Join Courtney and Betty with a cup of coffee or a beverage of your choice and take part in percolating wonder.
