Right Where We Are
Hi! I'm Sumer and this is my family: my husband, Jens, my son, Reece and daughter, Delaney. Oh, and our dog, Peyton. Two years ago our family left its church and we've been walking in the wilderness ever since. We've been surprised by the beauty and depth that has greeted us here. I’m not a professional podcaster or phycologist, Bible scholar or theologian. I’m just a person who loves to operate at a slower pace and is deeply committed to walking, albeit imperfectly, in the ways of healing and wholeness while being deeply formed by Love. Maybe we're not alone, maybe you're out here in the wilderness too. Wherever you are, we can be here together, finding our way, all the while being held by Love.
