Faith in Motion, the Podcast
Hosted by Rev. Kelsey Peterson Beebe, this show explores what it means to have an embodied faith - a faith that comes alive in how we live, move, and love. Together, we slow down, reconnect with God, and learn to practice faith in tangible ways. In this space, you are invited to experience God’s love within and around you, and gently called forward to embody that grace in the world.

The Beauty of Nuance with Porsia Tunzi
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In her classes at Saint Mary’s College of California, Porsia Tunzi encourages her students to bring their full selves. In a class that’s all about how religion shows up in our culture and everyday lives, discussions can get heated, but Porsia insists on creating a safe and brave space for her students to talk about hard things.
In this episode, Porsia shares with us why nuance is so important when it comes to religion. She encourages us all to see how we can benefit from leaning into curiosity and holding space for how all of our different lives and experiences shape our understanding of God.
