Wilma van der leek on Scripture, Silence, and Spiritual Longing (Part 1)

This month, Erik sits down with Wilma van der Leek for Part 1 of their interview. In this rich and deeply personal conversation, Wilma reflects on a lifelong love of Scripture—from imaginative childhood encounters on an Ontario pig farm to years of high school Bible teaching and eventually, a transformative journey through silence and seminary. With warmth and wisdom, Wilma shares how the Bible came alive in her upbringing, how it shaped her vocation, and how a Lenten season of silence opened her to the wider spiritual tradition of the Church. This is a story about learning, letting go, and discovering that all things are held together in Christ.
