Welcome to a very special series of the Louisiana NOW podcast, Hope Beyond the Storm. Ten episodes that tell the stories of hurricanes Katrina and Rita in South Louisiana. Twenty years after the storms, the recovery isn't just history—it's still shaping lives, churches, and communities across South Louisiana. This series shares first‑hand stories of resilience, hard choices, and holy grit from pastors, lay leaders, volunteers, and neighbors who rebuilt together. Host Rev. Todd Rossnagel sits with over ten people in the Louisiana Conference; sharing stories of how faith communities responded, practical wisdom for leaders, churches, and neighbors facing today's disasters—natural or otherwise.
