In this insightful episode of Henri's Bookshelf, host Wendy VanderWal Martin is joined by her daughter Renate Carson to dive deep into Henri Nouwen's powerful work Peacework. The episode explores how Nouwen's teachings on peacemaking—rooted in prayer, resistance, and community—remain relevant in today's divided world. Renate, a theology and culture student at St. Stephen University, shares her personal journey of connecting with Henri's ideas and how they resonate with her generation's search for meaning in a fractured society. From her own reflections on peacemaking, including the role of prayer in daily life and how small acts of hospitality, like cooking with intention, can affirm life and resist harmful systems, Renate brings a fresh perspective to the timeless wisdom of Henri Nouwen. The conversation also touches on the complexities of interfaith relationships, especially in a time of polarization, and how living out one's vocation as a peacemaker requires both courage and humility. This episode challenges listeners to rethink what it means to be a peacemaker in a world that often feels increasingly divided. Henri's call to "move out of the house of fear toward the house of love" is a message that resonates now more than ever. Whether you're familiar with Henri Nouwen's work or encountering it for the first time, this episode will inspire you to consider how prayer, resistance, and community can shape your own path to peace.

Today I have Olivia Blacke on the show to discuss “Friendly Ghosts” in books. Olivia's “Cordelia and Ruby” mysteries are a great example of helpful, non-frightening ghosts, and we use them as a launching pad to discuss the work these types of characters can do in a story. After all, ghosts were once people, so I think it's fair to refer to them as characters instead of monsters. Also, we have Olivia to thank for a new feature at the end of each episode, where guests recommend their favorite indie bookshops. We had already finished recording when she suggested this so I'll just say right now that her bookstore recommendations are Bookshelf on Church, in Kilmarnock, Virginia, and Bluebird and Co. in Crozet, Virginia.All links and show notes available at https://www.sheworeblackpodcast.com/

Join host Jed Doherty as he explores two remarkable children's books that prove storytelling is about much more than just words on a page. In this heartwarming episode, we meet two incredible authors who transform personal experiences into powerful narratives that educate, inspire, and connect families. First, meet Michelle Krumenacher, author of "Rocky's Courageous Rescue," a delightful picture book born from a family adventure in Kenya. While exploring Lake Nakuru, Michelle's son discovered rock hyraxes - adorable creatures most people have never heard of. What started as a bedtime story quickly became a published book that teaches children about courage, resilience, and embracing their unique qualities. Michelle's journey is more than just a publishing success story. Having lived in Burundi, one of the world's poorest countries, she and her family now work with refugees in Oklahoma, teaching English and spreading compassion. Her book reflects this spirit of understanding and connection. Next, Victoria Smith shares "Liliana's Match: Finding Bella," a touching story about a young girl with ADHD and her supportive canine companion. Inspired by her daughter's beloved beagle, Victoria crafted a narrative that helps children feel seen and understood. The book explores how animals can support kids with ADHD and anxiety, promoting empathy and awareness. Both authors demonstrate the incredible power of storytelling. They show how personal experiences, family support, and a commitment to understanding others can create meaningful children's literature. Their books aren't just entertainment - they're tools for learning, growing, and connecting. Whether you're a parent, educator, or simply someone who loves a good story, this episode offers inspiration and hope. It reminds us that every story matters, and sometimes the most powerful narratives come from the most unexpected places. Tune in to discover how these authors are changing the world, one page at a time.
