EPISODE 2.8 – EMERGENCE – SEE?
What’s emerging? What forms and shapes of sacred community are in the process of being birthed but are not yet?

Matt and Lucas speak with them and consider what forms, practices and approaches of sacred community will emerge in the coming years.
I am doing my part as I am certain you are doing yours. And, the state of the world right now requires us to double down and do more. So, let us pepper the world in a myriad of small, little, unsexy ways of being more loving, compassionate, caring, long-suffering, kind, humble, gentle, virtuous?
Nadia Bolz-Weber saw a spiritual longing in friends who didn’t fit into the typical church. So the Evangelical Lutheran pastor created a new one, The House for All SInners and Saints, which allows parishioners from all walks of life to embrace failures and surround themselves with acceptance, love, and grace.
Mark 4:35-41
The raging storms are all around us.

As a survivor of anorexia, abuse, and depression, I can say that I have let the overwhelming pressures of filling media/society's expectations of "how a woman should be" overwhelm and silence my inner voices - without even realizing I was doing it.
