Post your thoughts here. If you want a reply email me at [email protected]. I look forward to hearing from you.We all know what it feels like to leave behind what's familiar — a home, a role, a comfort zone — and step into something unknown. This episode of Tracks for the Journey, draws on the words of Jesus on the night before the cross — "Come now, let us leave" — to explore why change is so hard, and why it might be exactly what we need. From biblical figures like Abraham, Ruth, and Mary Magdalene, to a personal story of leaving pastoral ministry for hospital chaplaincy, LP unpacks the grief and gift that comes with every departure. And yes — Tim Walz even makes an appearance as a modern-day example of someone who left his comfort zone and changed history.Listening to this episode will help you:Understand why change feels like loss — and find peace with thatRecognize the invitation hidden inside life's dislocations and transitionsFind spiritual grounding when you're being asked to leave behind a place, a past, or a fearSee your own journey reflected in the stories of Scripture and everyday people Support the showSubscribe to this podcast for only $5 per month to get a monthly bonus episode, access to exclusive subscriber-only episodes, and the POSTINGS weekly newsletter on Substack with more resources for well-being!Subscribe at https://tracksforthejourney.buzzsprout.comEnjoy the Youtube Channel at https://www.youtube.com/@tracksforthejourney77
