Most of us are cooped up at home, so we thought it’d be fun to travel vicariously through this conversation all about one of our favorite places on earth.
In this episode, you’ll hear a theme about stones. I thought this passage from Psalm 118:19-24 was quite fitting.
“Open to me the gates of righteousness,
that I may enter through them
and give thanks to the Lord.
This is the gate of the Lord;
the righteous shall enter through it.
I thank you that you have answered me
and have become my salvation.
The stone that the builders rejected
has become the cornerstone.
This is the Lord‘s doing;
it is marvelous in our eyes.
This is the day that the Lord has made;
let us rejoice and be glad in it.”

The same God who met Hannah so faithfully there in her waiting, in her wondering, in her praying, is the same God who meets with me today.” -Jenn Hand
