About this episode
The episode discusses the concept of moving from individualism to a collective understanding of faith and community.
Scripture Ephesians 3:10–11 (NRSVUE) So that through the church the wisdom of God in its rich variety might now be made known to the rulers and authorities in the heavenly places. This was in accordance with the eternal purpose that he has carried out in Christ Jesus our Lord. Refrain I am part of something larger than myself. Quote Richard Rohr, from The Universal Christ "When you can honor and receive your own moment of sadness or fullness as a gracious participation in the eternal sadness or fullness of God, you are beginning to recognize yourself as a participating member of this one universal Body. You are moving from I to We." Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
