The Labor of New Beginnings

New beginnings are hard and painful… AND ALSO filled with new life. We get to participate in a recurring cycle of death and life, and our spirituality is not an exception.

Shaleen and Holland look at their shifting journeys through the metaphor of labor and birth as a guiding picture that we, as humans, can do hard things.

Please do yourself a favor and watch, Valerie Kaur speak on The Labor of Revolutionary Love.

What is Desert Spirituality?

Let’s turn our attention to the wild, free, and mysterious places known as the desert!

I laughed out loud when I read Kent Dobson’s sentiments of growing up in the belly of the Evangelical Church. It sums up my childhood. I come from a Western, reformed, conservative, evangelical tradition. I inherited interpretations of the Bible molded by a distinct lineage. My heritage stems back to the ancient western church Roman Catholicism emerged from, was reformed by the Protestants, infused with American right-wing conservatism, and informed by modern day evangelicals. I am grateful for the community and church tradition I was raised in. It shaped who I am, but about damn near killed my mystical soul.
