  • Welcome to the Temples (Ep. 19)

    We have been going to temple for our whole lives, but not everyone has. With temples finding new and different members everyday, we wanted to take a look at how the temples can be more open and inviting to people. On this episode, we talk to John Mullins and JP DeGuzman, of the San Fernando Buddhist temple, about their experiences coming to the temples later in life.
