Why subscribe to the Fat Soul Club?
Because you welcome a little whimsy into your world, and your faith is stretchy enough to allow you to laugh with me, at me, and perhaps even a little at yourself.
Every week: Inspired (hopefully!) and imaginative encouragement. Prayers and Praises from real people, including you if you want to share. And the occasional glimpse into how real-life missionary friends share the ways of Jesus.
A couple of sample posts:
Travel Lessons:
Every time I head to the airport or out on a road trip I look at my front door and say, “I will be different when I return.”
Snow on the beach
A week ago, I walked in the snow in the fields near my house with anticipation. “In just a few days, you’ll walk the beach!”
And a podcast too (occasionally).
Politics and pendulums
Welcome to the occasional podcast from the Apt Word pocket of the Fat Soul Club. Comments welcome!
Enjoy. Share. Send comments and questions, prayers and praises. Your host, Jana Gillham, is a world-traveling corporate refugee who began life as a third culture kid in Southeast Asia. She writes books and music. Jesus saved her (and keeps trying to save her) from herself and she is grateful!

Soul Matters arrives in your inbox once a week. Occasionally, a podcast from “Apt Words?” pops up too.
