Thoughtful and Inspiring
When my own "spiritual well" seemed to dry up, I found this broadcast. What a treasure! I am a changed person - seeing the spirit portrayed across so many different faiths and even those who are agnostic or atheist had convinced me that spiritualism is not just for the traditionally religious but accessible to everyone.

She wants to interview people who are questioning, sorting things out, presenting options for how to view the world - not people who have long ago decided that they have found the "right" way and their job is to convince the rest of us.

Beautiful Krista-like interviews with very interesting people.Read full review »

Tippett's falseness comes screaming through, for me at least. She likes herself way too much. Her delivery is grating and highly affected. She shamelessy fawns over her guests, and each one of them is "in the top of his field" or "she is the leading author in the area of..."...Read full review »
