Mystical Ministry

Hey all, in this crossover episode, we are joined by Unitarian Universalist Hosts of the Gospel of Katara Podcast Rue and Cooper.  We have a deep conversation about the 7th and 1 st principles and then we talk about the proposed 8th and how they impact our faith tradition.  This is part one of a longer conversation we will be having. 

With the state of the world sitting in pandemic and during an uprising, I wanted to share how I am feeling at this moment. If you are in the IE or Pomona areas, there is a bail fund.  If you want to donate: https://www.paypal.me/iebailrelieffund

TW: This episode includes references to Sexual Assault and Rape Join us this week as we hold space and talk about the impact of the #ibelieveher movement. This topic was too deep for just one podcast.  So in this extended episode we visit with one of our returning Guest Hosts Merrie V and we talk about the current movement and how it intersects with over movements.  We also talk about the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women's movement that doesn't always get the light or media attention.

TW: This episode includes references to Sexual Assault and Rape Join us this week as we hold space and talk about the impact of the #ibelieveher movement.  This months episode is short because we spent a lot of our time catching up before we hit record... but for the time you share with us in this sacred moment is so needed.   So sit back and listen as we share some of our personal insights during this heavy time. 

For this episode of the Opportunity Knocks  Podcast you have an immensely personal conversation between Rev Raa and Angie B as they talk about their dreams versus the work they must put in to make those dreams come true.   They talk about their own individual projects and their successes and challenges. In the episode we originally planned to talk about some social events, but our conversation was too good and too real so we left out the social events talk in this episode. 

In this episode we have our hosts Rev Raa and Diana Green Dragon sitting around the cauldron and talking about how they survive all the craziness in the media and take the time for some of their own self care. 

Join us for this first episode of Opportunity Knocks appearing under the umbrella of Mystical Ministry.   In this episode our Cohost Angie B is out, but we have 3 guests that come in to break it down and have an open and honest conversation about gender.    Gender is such a complex issue and we take some time to talk about how it is impacting grass roots orgs that have gender in their governing docs as well as talking about big businesses that are making steps towards being more inclusive of the gender spectrum.   In this episode our guests are Mary V, Asher J, and Veronica B. 

Join Diana Green-Dragon and Khemet Raa (aka Rev Raa) as they introduce this new series.  The topic of this episode is "Getting yo sh*t together."  We take a journey and look at what it means to organize your life from the pagan perspective.  If you have any questions for us please email us at: sacredspacepodcast@gmail.com   follow us on instagram at: @sacredspacepod follow us on twitter at: @sacredspacepod visit our website: https://sacredspacepodcast.wordpress.com/

“A Hitchhiker’s Guide to Black Liberation”—Black Liberation is a desire for the freedom of all peoples grounded in dismantling the structures and institutions that oppress Black peoples globally.  Unitarian Universalism has been and continues to be one of these institutions even as we have worked and continue to work to counter oppression in our faith communities and in the world.  As we continue our investigation of Black American history this month, join Gregory C. Carrow-Boyd and Mathew P. Taylor for perspectives on how our congregations might work for freedom and how we might know we are free.   This is the reflection from Mathew during the service.
