Global Trellis: The Podcast

Amy and Bernie have a fun and helpful conversation with Melanie Moxness who shares how long COVID, injury, and prolonged physical healing led her to a practical "theology of the body." Melanie shares her story helping listeners discover God's presence, grace, and purpose in physical limitation when that becomes more of your calling than you'd like.

Which zone are you in? Scott Brennan along with Amy and Bernie explore the comfort zone, stretch zone, and panic zone—a simple framework for understanding spiritual formation. Many cross-cultural workers stay in the stretch and panic zones, burning out in the process. Drawing on the Desert Fathers, Celtic spirituality, and real field experience, Scott unpacks why genuine rest matters, when stretch is healthy, and how to recognize (and exit) panic—for the sake of both your soul and your ministry. You're going to love this conversation!

Lori Ferrell joins Amy and Bernie to explore play as a spiritual practice, drawing on her own burnout and the sabbatical that helped her rediscover joy. They talk through why adults lose the habit of play, and how small things — baking bread, nature exploration, or a simple 15 minutes of fun a day — can reconnect us to a playful God.
