She introduces us to the life and work of Ephrem the Syrian.  The "lyric theology" of this 4th Century Christian pastor, poet, refugee, and songwriter has the power to refresh our perspectives even today. Karen concludes our time together by listening prayerfully to a recording of Ephrem's "Hymn to the Light." You can read an English translation of the lyrics in our shownotes.English Lyrics to Ephrem's "Hymn to the Light"Check Out Karen W.

Karen Wright Marsh is the author of Vintage Saints & Sinners. Narrating her own winding pilgrimage through faith, Karen Marsh reveals surprising lessons in everyday spirituality from these "saints"―folks who lived and breathed, and failed and followed God. Like Francis of Assisi who, as we consider in The Peace Project "was known for mercy. In fact, his contemplation of it and wonder at its power earned him the label 'channel of mercy.' "(Francis) embraced, experienced, and took note of mercy's transformational power as it affected the core level of his soul. Mercy softened and deeply altered him—setting him free from preconceived ideas and perceptions and setting him on a path toward connection with people, even people he had once thought wretched." (The Peace Project, pg. 25) Karen Wright Marsh is the executive director and cofounder of Theological Horizons, a ministry that supports Christians & seekers in academia by providing a welcoming community for engaging faith, thought & life. She holds degrees in philosophy from Wheaton College & linguistics from the University of Virginia. Karen lives with Charles Marsh, a UVa professor, at the Bonhoeffer House in Charlottesville, Virginia.

Listen in as the editor at The Well interviews Karen Wright Marsh, author of the recently published Vintage Saints and Sinners: 25 Christians Who Transformed My Faith (IVP). Vintage Saints is a lovely invitation to meet some new friends in faith, but also to look at our own stories of faith and to identify the people who have been for us faithful companions along the way. With permission, we published two excerpts at The Well. We chose two women whom we hadn’t met before, and who had public voices despite their gender, beginnings, and cultural contexts. As fellow women seeking to follow God’s calling in academic work and faithful witness, we hope you enjoy meeting Karen Marsh and her "old friends."

Sermon from the 15th Sunday after Pentecost. Ordinary Time. Sermon Text: Book by Karen Marsh, titled "Vintage Saints and Sinners."

In this interview that is part of our Warrior Woman series, you will meet Karen Marsh, mother of Victoria. Within hours after Victoria’s birth, Karen and her husband learned that their third daughter had Down Syndrome. Though initially frightened by this news, Karen and her family’s love for Victoria grew deeper as they recognized the awesome privilege of raising such a precious daughter. This story will encourage parents of children with Down Syndrome to realize the unique joys that can be theirs as they raise their children. But there is more to this story. Victoria was diagnosed with a life threatening cancer that resulted in the amputation of her leg. In this interview, you will hear about the courage and determination of a young teen to take back her life and her family’s determination to continue to fill Victoria’s life with experiences and opportunities to grow and learn, no matter what her physical condition. Listeners will also learn how to come alongside of families like Victoria’s, not just to help, but to soak up some of the joy and love that naturally flows from children with Down Syndrome.
