On this episode of the Library Laura Podcast, our guest is Tracy Balzer, an author of four books who I know personally from her work as the Director of Christian Formation at John Brown University. She is also a calligrapher, a grandma, and a traveller who loves leading pilgrimages to a remote and beautiful island called Iona, off the coast of Scotland. We’re here to talk about her book, A Journey of Sea and Stone: How Holy Places Guide and Renew Us, which released June 8th! But we also talk about writing, traveling, God’s calling, the pandemic, puffins, and lots of good books.
