When you are raised in a household of faith and then make choices that take you away from the path your parents envisioned for you since before your birth, it can cause them a lot of pain. Some parents work through their own pain and allow their love for you and the grace of their God to override their own disappointment and fears. Other parents react badly. Peggy Lawrence's parents reacted badly. It wasn't even that she left religion, she just left their religion. Unfortunately, she lived in a community that was predominantly of that faith, and so she was forced to leave. Leave her home, leave her family, leave her town. Being on your own is hard enough at 28 or 38. Being on your own at 18.  As a woman. In 1727. It’s almost impossible to fathom.

This episode is not just a journey through time but a reflection on how and why stories are passed down through generations, shaping our identities and our values.

How do we choose which stories to tell and retell?  And why do these stories matter?
