Having just dropped Sam off at school for his first day back in 18 months (!), we decide to distract ourselves in the customary manner, by recording a podcast episode. In the first of an occasional series on the joys of travel in Bolivia, learn more about historic -- and, indeed, prehistoric -- Sucre! 

We take some time out of dog-sitting to update you on things here in Bolivia, including exciting news about Sam's schooling and a new UK-bound Bolivian missionary. We also have an extended conversation about mental wellbeing and mental illness on the mission field. Canadian & US supporters: Join us on Monday 2nd of August at 8pm EST for our next live Zoom catchup!

We are back in Bolivia! Sam makes his long-awaited podcast return and we discuss the differences between shame-driven and guilt-driven cultures (and crucially, the difference between GMT and BST). Speaking of time-zones, make sure to join us live for some prayer and catch-up on the 7th of June, at 7:30pm/2:30pm (UK/EST). Please excuse some sound issues on this episode.   

After a whirlwind few weeks, we find ourselves locked down in London, Ontario. But you can’t keep a good pod down, and so we continue our series on cultural differences by offering some reflections on Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (or individualist vs collectivist cultures, as Amanda insists on calling it).

In our first episode of 2021, we begin a new series on differences between 'cold climate cultures' (e.g., North America, Europe) and 'hot climate cultures' (everywhere else!). We kick off by looking at contrasting attitudes to time, before closing with our prayer requests for the next few weeks.
