As more and more Christians return to herbalism as a way of promoting health, theological questions often arise. What do we think about herbs, and talking to plants, homeopathy, flower essences, and all the other fields of herbal practice, or tools that herbalists use?

To help me share about and explore the morals of herbal medicine, I am joined by Christian herbalists Mindy Capello, Angelica Benoit, and Natashia Atkinson, whose opinions I value greatly.

This was such an in-depth discussion, so I decided to split it into two parts to be released over the next week. After listening to today’s episode, please check out the following resources and email any questions or thoughts to laureltreewellness@gmail.com.

Thank you for listening!!
