Hey there, we intended to get this episode published last month but life and *waves hands at everything going on in the US* got in the way. HOWEVER! This was an encouraging conversation and a great way to orient ourselves as we kick off a new year under an oppressive, malicious, and very dumb empire.

Kat Armas is is a Cuban American writer, speaker, and theologian from Miami, FL. She holds a ThM from Vanderbilt Divinity School, and a dual MDiv and MAT from Fuller Theological Seminary where she was awarded the Frederick Buechner Award for Excellence in Writing. She is also a very thoughtful writer and a great hang. Topics included on this episode:

The way Empire trades mystery and memory for conformity
Her book dedication on LfRE
Advent and how the Incarnation relates to what she's been thinking and writing about lately
Her love of reading and horror movies
and MORE!

Check out her upcoming stops on her book tour and take some friends to see her when she's in your area!
