Together 4 Good Podcast:
Reclaiming Wonder | Finding Awe in the Everyday

Listen to this week's episode here!


In this week's episode, Pastor Nate explores the beautiful, often-overlooked spiritual gift of wonder—those moments where imagination and reality overlap to reveal the presence of God. He shares personal stories, insights into how wonder shapes faith, and how practices like Lectio Divina and programs like Godly Play help reconnect us to this essential part of the human and spiritual experience.


Nate reminds us that in a world dominated by logic, order, and technology, we need space for mystery and awe. By reclaiming wonder, we open ourselves to experiencing God more deeply and seeing the sacred in everyday life.


What you'll learn in this episode:

  • Why wonder is essential for a life of faith
  • How children’s spirituality teaches us about God
  • An introduction to Godly Play and how it encourages sacred imagination
  • How to practice Lectio Divina for a more emotional and spiritual reading of Scripture
  • Ways to cultivate moments of awe in your daily life
