21 July | Ūkaipō and Thin Spaces

This episode is for three groups of people: 1) Those who have stumbled across a place where it felt like heaven was especially close 2) Those who have a place meaningful to them where they find themselves replenished and reconnected with the source of life whenever they are there 3) Those who are wondering "what the heck is all this about!?" Whoever you are, join Petra as she talks to her good friends Pio Terei and Rev. Frank Ritchie to explore the Māori idea of ūkaipō and the Celtic idea of 'thin spaces'.
