Episode 35: Learning In Public - A Conversation With Courtney Martin

For each episode we offer a conversation starter you can download at our website. You can use this with a small group or for your own meditation or journaling.

In this episode with Courtney Martin we explore powerful questions about what it means to live a moral and ethical life in racially divided times.

Some Approaches to this Month’s Questions

You may want to explore the podcast and Questions of the Month privately, via journaling and silent reflection. But please consider gathering online for an exploration with one or more family members or friends. If that idea appeals to you, look into using Zoom, Facetime, Skype or some other video platform or talk with each other in person when vaccinated or safely social distanced.

Episode 28: A Reason for Delight - A Conversation With Poet, Ross Gay

In this episode, Carrie and Parker have a conversation with Poet, Ross Gay, author of The Book of Delights & Be Holding.
