S2E3: Rooted, Not Stuck

Two longtime parishioners, decades of stories, and how God can still surprise us.

Guests: Mark Landers & Mary Kluttz

Host: Danielle DeNise

Longtime parishioner. Lifelong educator. Outreach Commission chair. Lay chaplain. Vestry member. Between the two of them, they’ve held these and almost every other position at Christ Church. But Mary and Mark’s stories aren’t about the positions they’ve held. It’s about what happens when you keep saying yes.

In this episode, Mary and Mark talk about the people and practices that have rooted them at Christ Church for decades and the moments when being rooted gave them the courage to try something new.

It’s a warm, honest conversation about a community they love and why being rooted doesn't mean staying the same. For those who have known Mary or Mark for years, this is a chance to hear familiar voices share something deeper about the place they call home. And for anyone searching for community, it’s a reminder that being rooted doesn’t mean standing still. It can give us the confidence to grow, change, and try something new.
