In this episode of the SoulStream Living from the Heart podcast, host Rod Janz welcomes his good friend, Shauna Gill, to explore the meaning and personal journey of Lent.
Shauna, a retired critical care nurse educator, spiritual director, and author, shares her evolving understanding of Lent—from childhood traditions of "giving something up" to a deeper, more contemplative practice of spiritual renewal.
Together, they discuss Shauna’s book Reflections on Lent: A Reticent Wanderer’s Journey, the power of liturgical practices, and how rediscovering Lent has become a meaningful part of her spiritual life. They reflect on the themes of longing, belonging, and trusting in God while letting go of fear and control. Whether you're new to Lent or seeking a fresh perspective, this episode offers thoughtful insights into embracing spiritual rhythms with openness and grace.
