The Living Story: Where Fiction, Faith, and Healing Begins
What if the stories we love are mirrors of the stories we live?
The Living Story is a soulful podcast that explores the intersection of fiction, faith, and emotional healing.
Hosted by Tennille Martinez, a writer, teacher, and spiritual storyteller, this show dives into the lives of beloved book characters both classic and contemporary to uncover the deeper truths they reveal about identity, purpose, heartbreak, growth, and God.
Each episode blends literary analysis, biblical reflection, and personal testimony to help you rewrite limiting narratives, reclaim your voice, and live a story worth telling.
Whether you’re navigating a season of waiting, walking through grief, or standing at the edge of your next chapter, you’ll find wisdom in the pages of novels, the scriptures of the Bible, and the softness of storytelling that makes space for transformation.
Expect story-driven devotionals, character-based episodes with spiritual parallels, and bonus reflections that speak directly to the soul.
This is not just a podcast. It’s a gentle companion for women of faith, creative seekers, and those ready to turn the page.
