Loving Broken Bodies with Sister Julia Walsh


Listen Later

The Holy Ordinary podcast is a "pop-up" podcast that explores the contemplative dimensions of everyday life. Host Mark Longhurst periodically interviews authors, thinkers, and activists who illuminate the sacred, the just, and the beautiful in the midst of the ordinary. In this episode, Mark speaks with author and Franciscan Sister of Perpetual Mercy Julia Walsh. Sister Julia is the host of the Messy Jesus website and podcast. This episode discusses her book For Love of the Broken Body, which is a spiritual memoir that tells the story of Julia's recovery from a horrific, near-death accident and her call to the sisterhood. Mark says that "I loved Julia’s joyful, authentic spirit and am deeply inspired by her journey - and I hope you might be, too." You can follow Mark's writing at marklonghurst.substack.com.
