In a break from the norm, or what you might expect from Sinner Saint Sister, I am interviewing a TRUE true crime expert, M. William Phelps, author of over 40 true crime books, producer host and consultant on many tv productions, and creator and host of the podcasts Crossing the Line and host of Paper Ghosts, respectively. Together we discussed humanity's obsession with scary stories and the ethical responsibility that comes with telling them well.

Dr. Hillary L. McBride joins Sinner Saint Sister to discuss practices using the body as a tool for healing.

This episode feels important. I recently listened to Dear Alana, the number 1 show on Apple Podcasts, and was gripped by how intimately listeners were let in to the turmoil experienced by many Christians who are gay through the life and death of Alana Chen. Simon K. Fung, creator of Dear Alana, shared Alana's life with careful detail and reverent dignity. Simon has a deep love for the Church which is exactly why he has created this clarion call in Dear Alana for Her to do better by the lonely, hurting, and ostracized. Dear Alana is a story told with crushing beauty and Simon's soulful work, where he shares so much of his own journey, cannot just be good entertainment — it must be a conversation starter.

Kristin and Jen of I Mom So Hard are the best friend duo that went mega viral, became an internet sensation, and are now best selling authors, podcast hosts, and comedians with a national tour. Over the years they have used their wit and humor to make observations about momming—this thing we love so much but aren't sure isn't going to kill us. Their videos keep us in stitches for pointing out the obvious, calling out the absurd, rebuking the ridiculous, and celebrating the simple wins of motherhood. And as they joke and laugh and bare their vulnerabilities, they are bringing generations of women together to help each other get by. It was all my honor to sit down with them and discover that what you see is what you get. You're going to love them even more than you already do. Have a listen!

In today's episode I sit down with Cameron Belm, one of my very favorite online voices. When I had to reschedule our interview (twice) because I wasn't feeling quite like myself, there was no safer space to confess what I was going through and no person to more quickly extend grace. Cameron uses words to heal and poetry to pray. She fights for justice to bring Thy Kingdom Come. And she is a mystic at heart. My hope is that our conversation meets you right where you are & whatever you might be carrying.

I've admired Aaron Niequist and studied his perspective for quite some time. When the world started to fall apart I leaned in especially close. The Lord seems to have gifted Aaron in a lot of ways— teacher, musician, writer— but in my opinion, most especially as a sage in times of crisis. This episode is about his own time of crisis and what he learned was the only way through. You can follow Aaron on Instagram at @aaronieq and you can buy his book at https://www.amazon.com/dp/0735291160/ref=cmswrcpapigltfabc_KK2MBFWK1TV1FDRTWVFJ.
