In this episode of Open Seat, we sit down with Beth Deline to hear her powerful journey of faith, rediscovery, and courage.
After stepping away from the Church, Beth unexpectedly found herself knocking on a rectory door, Beth shares the moment that changed everything—when a priest told her, “All the angels and saints in heaven are rejoicing at this moment.”
Beth opens up about coming back to the Church and overcoming the fear to step into ministr, finding purpose and belonging in parish life and how a small “yes” can lead to big transformations
Her story is a reminder that it’s never too late to come home—and that sometimes, the things we’re most afraid of are exactly where we’re being called.
