Theology Jam

In this episode of Theology Jam, we talk with Denise Nussbaum about the relationship between faith and trauma, the role of psychology in healing, and why community matters when we face profound suffering. Denise shares about her work supporting survivors of the Maui wildfires and discusses her book, The Ashes Know Her Name. Together, we explore how faith, compassion, and meaningful relationships can help people navigate trauma and begin to rebuild their lives.
