I talk about golden threads often, and every time I mention one, I’m eluding to something I would eventually like to discuss. As your listening, and I mention these golden threads, that’s a cue to let me know which ones you would like to follow. I would love your feedback in that way. This podcast is meant to be a dialogue between the Church and the listeners. This is how we ensure that the church is always growing with those who make up its congregation. It’s how we stay relevent. And that’s the plan.
So let me know what you want to hear about. What questions are you pondering?
I'm so excited to both be a part of and witness where we go from here! I am enthralled by your vision and synthesis of philosophies. Thank you for your work, Jackie!
I would love to hear your thoughts and explorations around peace. What does peace even mean? What does it look like in action? What does it look like to cultivate peace? Create peace? BE peace? I would love to put some boots on the ground to a concept that I feel has been over-spiritualized and under-practiced.
I also had an epiphany that went something like "If you want your parents to be elders, start seeing them and treating them that way." I know from experience that people are forced to live inside my projections of them. What if my projection of my parents (and their generation) was that of elder? How would my behavior or attitude toward them change? And in turn, how would their behavior change? Would they show up in the world differently? I would love to hear your thoughts on creating elders as I see you more and more stepping into this role in your own community and way of being in the world. Love you.
