A Year of Practice – Coconuts, Cathedrals & the Unexpected Sacred

It’s hard to believe, but Homegrown Faith is one year old! So this month, Tim and Elliot look back over twelve months of exploring spiritual practices together — from gratitude and Sabbath to activism, nature connection and pilgrimage.There are stories of sawing coconuts, disassembling Hi-Fis, and holy moments found in bird song, sea air, and the world’s most transcendent ice cream. There’s laughter (mainly at Mum’s expense), a “Guess the Practice” quiz, and reflections on how faith and family life have quietly evolved through a year of shared experiment.Along the way, they discover that spirituality doesn’t need to be confined to church walls — it can be found in car boot fields, forest glades, and messy kitchen tables. Because sometimes the sacred hides in the most unexpected places.This special anniversary conversation is also being shared on Nomad Podcast’s main feed.If you’re enjoying Homegrown Faith and want to support what we’re doing, you can head over to our Patreon page for bonus episodes and a bit of behind-the-scenes goodness.If signing up isn’t your thing but you’d still like to send some encouragement our way, a quick rating or review on your podcast app makes a big difference.Since the podcast is all audio, if you’d like to see what we’ve been up to, you can find photos and little glimpses of our journey over on Instagram and Facebook.And if you’d like to share your own experiences, ask us a question, or suggest a practice for a future episode, you can drop Tim an email here.Like the podcast, our theme music is also homegrown—written by Elliot and produced by our friend Wilderthorn.
