Join me as I sit down with Sarah Green, host of 'In the Dust' podcast. In this episode, we dive into the heart of the Salvation Army—its history, roles, and the process of becoming an solider or officer. Sarah shares insights into her experience with the organization, addressing common questions like, "Is the Salvation Army a cult?" and exploring the deeper purpose behind its mission.

We then transition into an intimate discussion about Sarah’s personal journey of loss, grief, and healing after losing her dad to cancer. Sarah opens up about finding out about the diagnosis, being there when he passed on her wedding anniversary and offers heartfelt advice for anyone grappling with the loss of a loved one.
