Welcome to Episode 21 of “Stories & Other Things Holy.”
In this episode, Joshua Minden introduces a powerful reflection drawn from the Gospel of Luke—the story of Jesus’s temptation in the desert—inviting us to question the labels we’ve internalized from our past. Terry Nelson-Johnson then shares an intimate story about a conversation with his mother—a moment when makeup, memories, and vulnerability converge to remind us that even when familiar parts of our identity seem lost, we remain held by an unwavering source of love.
Join us as we explore:
• How moments of struggle can trigger a renewal of self
• The interplay between vulnerability, love, and self-worth
• The spiritual invitation to “remember who you are” even amid chaos
