This is an in-person event and masking is optional. We offer free masks at the front door, but deeply appreciate you bringing your own! What if I told you that whatever it is you are doing, if it is done with love, is enough?
It All Counts is a fiercely compassionate and deeply personal exploration of faith, doubt, and the sacredness of everyday life. With humor, honesty, and theological insight, pastor and podcaster Natalia Terfa invites us to reimagine what it means to live a spiritual life--especially when it doesn't look like the version we were taught.
Through stories of grief, joy, digital ministry, nature, rituals, and rage walks around the lake, Terfa challenges the idea that faith only "counts" when it fits inside institutional boxes. Instead, she offers a liberating vision of spirituality rooted in authenticity, curiosity, and love. Whether you've been told your questions are too big, your worship too unconventional, or your body too broken, this book insists: You still belong. You are not alone. And yes--it all counts.
Natalia Terfa is a Lutheran pastor, co-creator and cohost of the Cafeteria Christian podcast, and the writer behind the popular weekly e-devotional The Friday Uplift. She is the author of Uplift: A Little Book of Promises to Give Hope and Uplift Your Soul and a contributor to The Deconstructionists Playbook. Her work has been featured on Church Anew and Our Bible App, where she writes with an accessible, expansive, and inclusive theology for the sake of being human. She lives in Minneapolis with her family, two cats, and a large number of plants.
Nora McInerny is an author, a speaker, and the host of Thanks for Asking, a podcast about what matters to you. She is the bestselling author of several memoirs, including It's Okay to Laugh (Crying Is Cool Too) and No Happy Endings, and her work has resonated widely for its blend of humor and emotional clarity. Nora is a remarried widow raising a beautiful, blended family with, as she says, her "current, very much alive husband (knock on wood)."
