The Sound and The Splendor Podcast

Hi there! We are the collective voices of The Sound and The Splendor - a global non-profit based out of Seattle, WA that exists to nurture creativity and cultivate a community that celebrates the diversity Christian women through the creation and curation of stories, resources, and events.

We believe every woman is made in the image of our very creative God. As Christians, we believe we are called to express that inherent creativity and nurture its health to better reflect our Creator. We don't intend for this to be a space to primarily discuss our beliefs, but our beliefs shape how we see the world and everything we do during our time in it. We will reference a lot of "world wisdom" and resources that exist outside the Church, because we believe these are graces of God and we can glean from them what is holy and beneficial - and leave the rest.

We intend for this to be a conversation space for women of all tribes. We collect and curate submissions from women all over the world and hope to grow this channel into a robust and diverse community of women who love, support, and sharpen one another. Whether you're a social worker, a pediatrician, a stay-at-home mom, a real estate agent, a scientist, a full time musician, a therapist, an oncologist, a designer, an architect, or a writer - you are welcome here. Whether you come from great wealth or great poverty or anywhere in between - you are welcome here. Whether you're a Catholic or a Protestant, a calvinist or an arminian, attend a four square church or an anglican church, believe in pre- or post-millennialism - our identity in Christ gives us common ground. We love you as our sisters and you are welcome here. Let's work together to sharpen one another, strengthen ourselves, and ultimately reflect more of our beautiful savior Jesus into the world around us.

"Therefore, brothers and sisters, since we have confidence to enter the holy places by the blood of Jesus, by the new and living way that he opened for us through the curtain, that is, through his flesh, and since we have a great priest over the house of God, let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, with our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water. Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for he who promised is faithful. And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near." - Hebrews 10:19-25
