Tanner Olson (author, poet, speaker) joins Andy and Sarah to talk about what he’s been working on in the last few years, including his most recent book Getting Through What You’re Going Through. He shares his upcoming tour dates, what he loves about traveling and presenting poetry for an audience, and why he thinks you’ll enjoy poetry more than you think you might.

As you grab your morning coffee (and pastry, let’s be honest), join hosts Andy Bates and Sarah Gulseth as they bring you stories of the intersection of Lutheran life and a secular world. Catch real-life stories of mercy work of the LCMS and partners, updates from missionaries across the ocean, and practical talk about how to live boldly Lutheran. Have a topic you’d like to hear about on The Coffee Hour? Contact us at: listener@kfuo.org.
Today’s episode of The Coffee Hour is underwritten in part by Concordia University Wisconsin and Ann Arbor. You can learn more about Concordia University Wisconsin at cuw.edu and Concordia University Ann Arbor at cuaa.edu. Live Uncommon.
