Walk with Mary: Codependency, Family Conflict, Letting Go

BONUS: Wrapping Season 1

In our final installment for Season 1, the team reflects on what we've accomplished thus far—and discusses in which movie and which character we'd each choose to be. Behind-the-scenes Photos from Season 1 If you've ever wondered what we see while we're listening, laughing and talking about walking, here are some photos of our humble beginnings. Daniel's view via Skype of our second recording environment: the "Junk Room" studio. The team's view of Daniel's antics. Amanda's studio selfie Jane prefers the blue mic cable. Mike is usually buried in gear, and probably laughs more while podcasting than at other times. So it's probably going to be therapeutic for him to proceed with Season 2. Mike sometimes also shows enthusiasm. Music credits: "Mountain Drive" by Sea Sheperd, courtesy Soundstripe.

Walk with Mary: Codependency, Family Conflict, Letting Go

Mary calls it codependency—this pattern that formed in her with her family of origin. She also speaks of a related idol. But what is an idol, and what might it have to do with her experience in harmful family relationships?

BONUS: Learn about Peacemaking

Everyone deals with tension in relationships—some times, all out conflict. There are ways of moving through these times that help us grow personally, heal relationships, and honor God. Daniel talks with some of his colleagues in the world of Christian peacemaking to introduce us to some of the key ideas and suggest some next steps for our learning.

Walk with Kent: Regret, Career Loss, Wounding Others

Two tragedies in Kent's life—one in childhood, and one at age forty—have shaped him forever, and in some ways, 'dominated' his life. He has wrestled with regret and his own responsibility in these events, and through it has grown in compassion toward others who struggle in life.

Walk with Gabe: Mass Killing, Mercury Poisoning, Sex and Love Addiction

While filming a documentary in Africa, Gabe witnessed unthinkable atrocities. He got to play a key role, promoting healing there. Yet all the while, he carried his own inner darkness.
