We're launching Season 2 with an interview that I am truly so delighted to be sharing. A few years ago I stumbled upon the IG account Liturgies for Parents and was captivated by how these prayers were giving words to my actual life as a mom with three young kids. As it turns out the author of these beautiful words is a real person and she's LOVELY. Today, we get the gift of hearing Kayla Craig remember the story of her own family coming together through birth and adoption and how her latest work Every Season Sacred was born out of her own parenting journey.

Kayla is a former journalist who brings deep curiosity and care to her writing. She's the author of Every Season Sacred and To Light Their Way. With a poetic, prophetic voice, she created the popular Liturgies for Parents Instagram account, which Christianity Today named an "essential parenting resource." She also hosts the Liturgies for Parents podcast. Kayla's nuanced and accessible reflections, essays, and prayers are featured in various books, devotionals, and Bible studies. Kayla lives in a 115-year-old former convent in her Iowa hometown, where she hopes to create spaces of welcome alongside her four children, two dogs, and pastor-husband, Jonny.
