For our first episode, we talked with Jackie White to share the story of how the Abbey of the Heights came to be. We share the inspiration that led to opening the Abbey as an urban Christian retreat space in April 2021. Jackie serves as the hospitality coordinator of The Sabbath Life, so when you submit a booking request, she's the one you connect with. She's also the one responsible for all the furnishings, decor, and the visio divina art on the walls from the very beginning. In addition to her work at the Abbey, Jackie is a mom to two emerging teenagers and one rambunctious golden doodle, an Etsy artist, and a trained therapist.We talked about the conversations between us and the neighbors that moved the Abbey from a crazy idea to a reality, about the crafting of sacred spaces in a bustling downtown neighborhood, and what it is that makes Christian hospitality unique and so needed in this particular cultural moment.Here's where you can submit a booking request to the Abbey of the Heights through Jackie. And here's where you can visit Jackie's Etsy shop.Music: \"Joy Birds\" by Eric Baird (©2020 Eric Baird), used with permission. ","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/v1497I8S5v6Ca1HeF68V7JBS4JGjPD2_56EDZoc5urM/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9kZDRj/NzZkZTkzZTZhMjI5/MjI4OGI4NmZkMzI0/OTEzYy5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
