    Guests: Rev. Dawn Anderson and Dr. Jana Rentzel The Christmas season is often one where we're told to rejoice, but sometimes this season is more grief-filled than joyful. Are those two feelings mutually exclusive? Rev. Dawn Anderson and Dr. Jana Rentzel share how grief often tears away the facade that Christian contemplation was already trying to remove in the first place and how we can hold sorrow and joy in tandem.

    Guests: Ilknur Ozgur, Director and Founder of Artstillery and Morgana Wilborn, Director of Education at Dallas Theater Center. We are constantly being pulled away from being present in the moment. Often this leads us to ignore our emotions or the emotions of the people around us. “Checking out” of the present moment is not as possible in live performance. Ilknur and Morgana talk through what it is like to practice in the moment presence from a performance perspective. Their perspective helps us to embrace our thoughts and emotions in the present moment that we might otherwise ignore.
