We are interviewing all of our regular contributors for you to get to know them better. Today’s guest is Jill, a GP and cross-cultural worker in the Middle East, who shares beautifully about the cross-section of burnout, compassion fatigue, and secondary traumatic stress, but basically: what happens when you feel like you’re being dumped by a wave, angry that you’re the one to fix it all? We also cover how Jill found a richer and deeper faith on the other side of it.

Madeleine Richards is a singer-songwriter and a regular contributor to Stories I’d Tell You at Dinner. We explore how she started writing and producing songs, coming to faith in Christ in her twenties, and the balm of community and bringing her mess to the Lord after a diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis.
