Laura Whitfield: Untethered

Our guest for today is author, columnist, blogger and teacher among the many hats she has worn. Laura talks about her upbringing in the church and a death in her formative years that radically altered how she saw the world and experienced the spiritual. She writes in depth about this experience in her coming of age story "Untethered: Faith, Failure, and Finding Solid Ground".
