This Good Word, Episode 49: Formation with Christine Osgood (ShowNotes)

Christine Osgood is one of those people who help me to breathe easy and "just be." She's a fierce and fiery but she's also down to earth and funny. I like her a lot, and our conversation had some of my favorite ingredients: it expanded my view of God, of people, and of what my own soul is capable of when I care for it. You're going to love this conversation.Dr. Christine Osgood, LMFT, D.Min. is a mom who set up shop in the suburbs and is trying to live well in this world. As a Marriage and Family Therapist, she is constantly trying to help people in the journey of becoming.  That is a glamorous way of saying - growing up. Additionally, she has this crazy idea that if people's whole souls were well formed, there would be lots of lovely, compassionate, generous people caring for the world. She has a Christian background that influences her thoughts yet she also tries to integrate much of what she has learned from the field of psychology to inform her work with people.Enjoy!Links we talked about: Purchase Sobriety and Spirit with Seth Haines - $10 Urban RetreatSacred Pathways, by Gary L.
