Somewhere along the way we picked up a lie: that caring for your body is vanity, and that body and soul are at odds. Ryan and Annie DeNome have been rejecting that idea at their kitchen table for years — on evening walks, over coffee, in conversations with friends that ran two hours past when everyone meant to go home. This is the episode where they move those conversations to a microphone. You'll meet both hosts, hear the thirty-second version of two very different healing stories, and find out exactly what this show will and won't promise you. No prosperity gospel about your body. No supplement that cures everything. No talking down to anyone. Just where modern medicine meets the wisdom of Christianity, every Tuesday morning.
In this episode
- Why "reject the gift, reject the giver" changes how you think about your own body
- Annie's background: competitive swimmer turned triathlete, NET Ministries, Franciscan University, theology + psychology
- Ryan's background: baseball, a broken back at 14, and a doctor who said "the closest thing to a miracle I've ever seen"
- The show's three promises — and the three patron saints it's recorded under
- What's coming: doctors, priests, theologians, and friends with healings to tell about
