Kids in grad school and a new podcast episode
At The Well This Week
Hello friends — how are you? We have some great things to share this week.
Tara Edelschick writes about The Best Thing About Having Kids in Grad School.
“When I told friends and professors that I was pregnant with my first son, nearly all of them responded with, “That’s so great. How exciting!”
The second set of responses diverged. One group said something along the lines of, “Don’t worry. The moms all finish their degrees faster than the other students. Having kids will help you get focused and give you a reason to get back into the ‘real world.’ ””
We have an excellent new podcast episode for you too. We talk to Kat Armas, theologian and author of Abuelita Faith, about who is wise a person, and who gets to decide who counts as wise, her journey in theological education, and her love of Scripture.
"What if the greatest theologians the world has ever known are those whom the world wouldn’t consider theologians at all?"
