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.
(Faith in Motion, the Podcast was formerly The Lady Preacher Podcast)
