Thank you for this podcast. I felt like I had no joy in Christmas this year. I have been exhausted with my job, with illness, with chasing after my young children, and all of the holiday expectations. But listening to this discussion gave me a chance to finally pause and find hope.

Thank you for this discussion. It’s really great. I’ve read widely but have never come across these books you profiled which is humbling.
