In the Fields podcast

A podcast where you’ll find St. Martin’s out and about, wondering about questions of the Bible and the faith together, and maybe eventually some sermons too. A grab-bag of a whole variety of things, whatever we’re interested in at the moment and where we’re finding God out in the fields.
