Announcing My New Podcast: A Cup of Cold Water

Exciting news!  For years, many of you blog readers have requested to be able to hear my poetry and essays in my own voice– so I’m finally making that available!  Thank you for all your supportive prodding, as well as your patience.

There has been a real learning curve here for me, simplified by far by a podcasting husband (host of the The Bible Speaks to You), who has the know how and all the equipment. Since the beginning of January, he has been generously tutoring me, and I’m finally up to speed and ready to go. Heaps of thanks go out to him for making this possible. It wouldn’t be happening without him.

Thanks as well go out to our younger daughter for creating the podcast’s eye-catching logo. She understood exactly what I wanted, and created it for me with ease and joy one day, sitting in front of our fire. Her computer graphics stand out really well on the podcasting platforms, and I’m grateful for her help with it.

And I reached out recently to my talented musician friend, Andrew Brewis (who wrote one of my favorite hymns, CS Hymn #513), and asked him for original intro and outro music for this project. He also instantly understood exactly what I needed, and sent it promptly along. It is perfect and I’m thrilled with it; so many thanks go out to him too, for making this new podcast sound so upbeat and polished.

We are calling my podcast A Cup of Cold Water: Nourishing and Refreshing You with Wisdom, Inspiration, and Encouragement. New episodes will come out every week on Thursdays, and they will average only 5 minutes long, since they are meant to be cup-sized after all, and not a fire hose. The content for the podcast will be pulled from my deep blog archive of almost 6,000 posts, over the past 16 years.

I have already uploaded five episodes on my new website, so you can check it out, and see what you think.

Here’s the podcast website: www.acupofcoldwater.com

I hope you will sign up to get weekly emails on Thursdays when a new podcast episode comes out.

You can also subscribe on any podcast platform of your choice.

And just so you know, I’ve also added a podcast tab in the menu bar of this blog which will take you directly to the podcast site. The podcast subscription form is also available in the footer of this blog.

Please tell your friends about it!

And thank you again for persuading me take this on.

I work to amplify good wherever I find it. I love color, texture, beauty, great ideas, nature, metaphor, deliciousness, genuine spirituality, and exploring new territory. I encourage authenticity, nurture creativity, champion sustainability, promote peace, and hope to foster a new renaissance where we all are free to be our most fulfilled, multifaceted, and terrific selves.
