Well With My Soul from Severn Vineyard
By Severn Vineyard
Severn Vineyard presents a podcast about our spiritual and emotional health. What does it mean to healthy in spiritual and emotional ways, and what difference can this make to our quality of life? We’re going to hear and discuss ideas about this with people who have experiences and stories to share about life in good and not so good states of health.
Our first series, on “Emotionally Healthy Church”, looks at how we have sometimes found church to be a difficult experience and how we have been exploring ways to improve this.
If you have any questions or experiences to share, we would love to hear from you - email [email protected]
