Cheryl is a multi-award-winning singer/songwriter who shares stories of Indigenous life—the joy, sorrow, faith, and journey. In this episode, Part 1 of our conversation with Cheryl, we discussed the practice of land acknowledgment, exploring the connection Indigenous peoples have with the land and its link to faith in God as Creator.

#104 Ruth: Vocation for the poor - with Gustavo Santos & Dr. Drew Lewis
Lots of people are talking about a theology of vocation these days. But not everyone has the freedom to live fully into their giftings or pursue the career of their dreams: financial constraints, family obligations, and personal limitations often seem to have more weight than a sense of inward call. This week Old Testament scholars Dr. Drew Lewis and Gustavo Santos, Administrator of Regent's MA in Leadership, Theology, and Society, show us how the Book of Ruth speaks into a rich biblical theology of vocation that meets each of us in our particular circumstances.
