Christie Purifoy is the author of Placemaker: Cultivating Places of Comfort, Beauty, and Peace. She says, "I believe that life, in all its pain and beauty and mystery, is a journey of love. Writing keeps my eyes wide-open to this astonishing reality."

In this episode, Jonathan and Christie discuss the analogy between writing and gardening, how to name and and rename "weeds," and what it means to extend hospitality to your reader.
