About In The Seams
Exploring how God's power shines through the brokenness of chronic illness
We are a Christian podcast that interviews other Christians who struggle with chronic pain/illness or talk about how mental health issues overlap with chronic pain and illness. We are an outreach resource for Broken and Mended (brokenandmended.org), a support-group ministry that is "connecting hurting people to Jesus and each other." Most of our episodes are interviews, though we have a few solo episodes with the host, David Heflin, or episodes that replay a chronic illness talk from a conference.
