Description
An Abiding Life Podcast aspires to inspire listeners to rediscover what it truly means to live simple, quiet, abiding lives with Jesus. In a world that champions self-reliance and self-authorship, we pray this podcast helps listeners return to and remember all Who God is and all that He’s done. Our hope is that as we grow in our individual walks with God, we will see restoration and healing that can only come from Jesus in our families, our churches, and our communities.
The invitation is simple: Come and see.

Welcome back to An Abiding Life Podcast with your hosts, Hunter + Kait Poppa! In this episode, we take a look at an ancient text written by the Apostles of Jesus—the Didache!
