Abiding Together

Abiding Together

Three women, three vocations, one conversation. Abiding Together is hosted by Sr. Miriam James Heidland, a religious sister, and two laywomen, Michelle Benzinger and Heather Khym. The show describes itself as a place of connection, rest and encouragement for people living out their life in Jesus Christ.

Episodes usually take a theme, such as prayer, healing, identity, suffering, friendship or a season of the Church year. The hosts talk it through honestly and warmly, drawing on Scripture, the saints and their own lives. They have also run series working through particular books. It feels less like a lecture and more like time with wise friends who are glad you came.

It suits inquirers who want to grow in prayer, women looking for companions on the journey, and anyone carrying wounds who needs to hear about God's healing love. Pair it with something more doctrinal, and listen when you need encouragement.

Key Takeaways

  • Honest conversation about prayer and healing.
