Although this entry is under the label, Book Reviews, once again it is not a book. This is rather a site I stumbled upon which led me to American Public Media and a program, Speaking of Faith. I don't believe this program is broadcast in the area where I live.
Once again, thanks to the miracle of technology, which I intermittently decry, I have been able to listen to some pretty amazing presentations. One of their offerings was an interview with Matthew Sanford, a paraplegic who is also a yoga teacher now working with injured soldiers returning from war zones. Another program I enjoyed is "The Ethics of Eating," a conversation with Barbara Kingsolver. Then there was Desmund Tutu's God of Surprises.
The good news is that there are numerous programs in the archives just waiting to be enjoyed. The bad news is that I am one of the last people on earth not to own an iPod and so must sit at my computer to listen to these wonderful programs. Other bad news is that I've run out of busy work (cleaning and sorting) so I have nothing to do while I sit at my computer and listen to these offerings. The solution to my dilemma would be to find more busy work or to purchase an iPod. Anyone out there with an old iPod for sale?
Check out Speaking of Faith. Presenters and topics to feed a hungry mind.
