Unseriously

It's a super fun mini-episode just in time for thinking about Christmas gift-giving--consider stuffing those toddler to early elementary stockings with a seek and find book from our friend from across the pond, Sarah Parker. On this episode Sarah and Holly will delve into the origin of "loggerheads," confuse the tar out of themselves with earbuds/airpods/Air Bud/ear plugs...(you get the idea) plus hear why Sarah was so nervy to share a wall with a family from their small group. We'll hear all about Sarah and her husband, Andre's, collaboration on the Seek and Find series from The Good Book Company, and Sarah's heartfelt and early connection to books that offered engagement without the need to understand every word.
Find all the Seek and Find offerings from The Good Book Company here, and find out more about Sarah and Andre at their web site, seekandfind.com. You can also follow them on Instagram.

Caroline Saunders is BACK for a return episode of Unseriously, and oh my, the topics she and Holly will (wait for it...) cover, as they celebrate the launch of Caroline's latest book, But What Do I Wear? The Biblical Story of Clothing and How it Helps Us Think About Getting Dressed and Approximately Seventeen Stories I May Regret Telling.
Listen in for stories about husbands who more or less approximate NFL quarterbacks, getting clear direction on what you mean by "bring an appetizer," and why Caroline is afraid of Anne Frank.
The conversation on the sanctification of self-image is rich as Caroline covers how our assumptions about what the Bible says about getting dressed couldn't be more wrong. Both this book (and Caroline herself!) comfort others with the comfort she has received in Christ, and for women in particular--what a moment for underscoring how the most important thing about a believer in Jesus is that she is clothed in Christ.
Holly and Caroline collaborated on the mom humor essay collection Same Here, Sisterfriend, Mostly True Tales of Misadventures in Motherhood, which they discuss. Jen Wilkin's Dust to Dust also makes an appearance in the conversation, as well as the picture book Quit Calling Me a Monster!

Look, I don't know when you appreciate a trigger warning buuuuut for the purposes of anyone listening while driving or making sandwiches or driving through Chick-fil-A to pick up sandwiches...um: TRIGGER WARNING. You might want to just read a few lines of the show's transcript for this one before you decide to dive in.
BUT, if you join us, prepare to gross-guffaw with Bible teachers Glenna Marshall and Elizabeth Santelmann as they meet for the first time with what should go on record as the strangest pre-association to one another.
Listener, apologies for what we think was a low battery on Glenna's Air Pod--but it's just one of those convos that can't be recreated.
Welcome to the first ever *PG* Mini-Bonus. It's going to be a wild ride!

Glenna's book Praying in Pain released in June. You can find Glenna at her web site or on Instagram.
Elizabeth's Bible study Gently Tended released in September. You can find Glenna at her web site or on Instagram.
