Our Story Before Ethne became a queen of Tara and married Cormac mac Airt, she was a foster child to Buchet, a man known for his tremendous hospitality. In this story, Marisa Goudy imagines Ethne's perspective on this 12th century Irish tale. Our Guest Elizabeth Shaw is an author, consultant, speaker, and facilitator who brings her core philosophies of practical optimism and radical hospitality to everything she does. Whether she's planning a custom Cirque du Soleil show, working as an hospitality consultant for organizations like Toyota and State Farm, a strategic partner for entrepreneurs and thought leaders, or inspiring audiences around the world with her book The Optimist Manifesto, Elizabeth brings a thread of collaboration, service, and whimsy to all she does. Equal parts head in the cloud and feet on the ground, Elizabeth is an optimistic strategist who puts people and purpose at the center of all of her work. Find Elizabeth on her website, on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/inspiringoptimism/ (@inspringoptimism), and https://www.facebook.com/shaw.elizabethc (Facebook.) Our Conversation Hospitality is an Irish tradition that dates back to the Brehon laws and https://www.rte.ie/brainstorm/2022/0314/1286239-ireland-hospitality-welcome-strangers-medieval-brehon-laws (still echoes in the culture today.) Elizabeth brings her lived definition of hospitality to the conversation: it's about being seen, being welcomed, and being cared for.  Hospitality is about more than feasts, merriment, and the perfect house. It's also about offering care and a safe space. The gender roles associated with hospitality and being the “perfect hostess” Hospitality creates community and depends on community, not on an individual who needs to do it all.  Marisa wrote this story in the first person, a first for one of her KnotWork stories. Ethne represents the movement from the Princess to Queen archetype described in The Sovereignty Knot. Her foster father, the great host, holds the Wise Woman energy. There is a sexual assault at the center of the original story. Rape is a common element in mythology, and Marisa and Elizabeth spoke at length about how to stay true to the source material, and yet tell a story about hospitality that made Ethne a heroine. They didn't want to erase the trauma to tell a “nice” story, but there was a desire to present Ethne as a sovereign being, rather than a victim.  The importance of reciprocity. What it's like to give too much and what it's like to feel like you're not good at offering hospitality.  The Irish word for welcome is fáilte This tale appears in the c. 1160 CE manuscript, The Book of Leinster, and is commonly called http://www.ancienttexts.org/library/celtic/ctexts/buchet.html (The Melody of the House of Buchet.)

These stories of immense bravery speak of something important – that in every circumstances, God's grace is sufficient for us. Nosa encourages the church to walk together despite our differences in age, gender, tongue and colour, recognising that each member adds a special value to the table.

MOBILIZING WOMEN FOR MISSIONS (Nosa Tukura) https://www.academia.edu/33577397/MOB... We live in a kairos moment, a time where we have more educated, entrepreneurial and professional women than ever before. We have several young women studying in our institutions of higher learning in various fields including the hitherto designated 'male dominated fields'. Many women have proved their mettle in academia, science, medicine, engineering, arts, etc. Many have broken the proverbial 'glass ceiling' by becoming heads of institutions previously headed only by men. AfirGo Magazine https://afrigo.org/ AfriGO was launched in 2016. This quarterly magazine celebrates this history while encouraging the church's increasing participation in God's global mission. As the Global South provides new leadership and workers for Gospel proclamation, AfriGO is here to tell the stories, report on the developments, and share news and information to support both pastors and the mission workers they send.

Prayer is an essential part of a Christian's life. It's a two-way communication between us and our heavenly Father. It happens so often and naturally in our daily lives that sometimes it becomes a routine. And most of the time, we pray for the needs for ourselves, our families and people close to us. How about people who are beyond our communities, those in need or being persecuted, those who don't know how to pray or are too fearful to pray, or those who have never heard of Jesus in their entire lives - the unreached people? In this episode, we're pleased to interview Jenny Oliphant from the Ethne Prayer Team. Born in the United Kingdom, Jenny served in missions for many years in multiple locations, including Israel, Bolivia and Argentina. After spending 15 years in Argentina, Jenny and her family followed God's calling to return to the UK in 2012, and started her involvement in the prayer movement, focusing on mobilizing prayers globally for unreached people groups. Through partnership with Joshua Project, Mission Frontiers Magazine and other organizations, Jenny and the Ethne Prayer Team can bring first-hand information collected from the field workers to the global body of Christ who are ready to pray, which helps those prayer warriors to not only pray for specific struggles but also to celebrate their breakthroughs as well. Are you ready to pray for the unreached? If you find it too hard to keep up the commitment, Jenny has a brilliant suggestion - find another person or a group of people to pray with you! Praying with others helps us stay focused and keeps us accountable, and better than that, we're building relationships with God and with our brothers/sisters at the same time by praying together. Read more about the ministry: https://ethneprayer.org/ The Ethne Prayer team is a relational community which catalyses and connects prayer strategists to pray and mobilise the body of Christ to see God's Kingdom preached and demonstrated amongst all people groups particularly among the least reached peoples and places.

In the studio today, we have Pastor Henry Lee from Korea. He is a father, an avid cyclist, director of Frontiers Korea and chair of Mission Korea. Despite having studied, married and served as mission pastor in America, Pastor Lee heeded God's calling for him to return to his homeland, Korea to commence mission mobilization within the young people. He shares how mission mobilization came about in the history of Korea, that the gospel was indigenous to Korea before missionaries came into the country. Mission-Korea conferences and the Campus Crusade have seen an exponential increase in college students giving their lives to God and willing to be sent overseas for missions. However, modern day Korea has seen a reduction in sending of missionaries. Pastor Lee discusses how more work is to be done to ensure the ‘quality' of missionaries sent out, emphasizing cross-cultural missions to be likened to taking on the local persons' identity and culture rather than enforcing our own ways on others. As Christ's followers, we hear of this again and again, but it is never enough to emphasize the three fundamentals - knowing the love of God, devoting to the word of God, spending time in prayer. About our special guest: Henry Lee, the director of Frontiers in Korea since 2004. He has been the exec. member of Ethne and Mission Korea since 2006. He used to serve in Dagestan for 6 years before getting seriously involved in mission mobilization in Korea. His passion is to see God's kingdom to be expanded among Muslims.

Gary & Ruthie x x Released: 20th December 2008, 56m   We love to hear from you! Please email garyandruth@celticmythpodshow.com, or call us using Speakpipe News & Views We talk about some more amazing new fairy art that has been submitted to us by renowned artist, Justin Russell, and describe the new book he is writing. Both of us have been interviewed by Christopher Blackmore for Action magazine for the AREN organisation.   The Meanings of Yule We then discuss the meanings and traditions of Yule with a reading from the Golden Bough.   Lords & Ladies by Kim Thompsett Kim Thompsett is a musician and songwriter living and working in the South East of England. She plays guitar, flute, native American flute and zither. Her songs have an escapist quality which evokes the England of old with hints of Celtic, medieval and the classic folk artists of the ‘60’s and 70’s. The album Songs from the Uglee Meadow is due for release on 30th November 2008. The album title is inspired by a serene and beautiful place in East Sussex called the Uglee Meadow. The album features musicians such as Will Summers from Circulus on recorders, flutes and crumhorn and Philip Martin (alias Drohne) on hurdy gurdy. You can find out more about Kim on Myspace, last.fm or our Contributor Page.   Ogma's Lament by Dr. Joe Christopher We wrongly ascribe this wonderful sonnet to Professor Joe Christopher instead of the Doctor Joe Christopher in the show. Apologies for this! Joe Christopher of Tarleton, Texas, author of 'C. S. Lewis', Twayne English Authors Series, writes - 'I don't know that the enclosed sonnet is appropriate for the C. S. Lewis Newsletter, for the Church of Ireland may have doubts about a work that has only one brief allusion to Lewis's Christianity and is otherwise pagan. Further, the sonnet has one weak rhyme and certainly counts on a reader having knowledge of Irish legend (for the argument by analogy in the last tercet) and Irish myth. On the other hand, it certainly ties to Ulster!' Find out more about Joe Christopher on our Contributor page. [Source]   The Standing Stone by The Bards of Mystic William, the Captain of the Bards of Mystic, says: I was inspired to write that one after personally wandering through the fields of standing stones in Carnac, as well as visiting many dozens of sites throughout north western France. Find out more about the Bards of Mystic on Myspace. More details will also be found on our Contributor Page.   Priestess of the Forest by Ellen Evert Hopman This tale is set in third century Ireland where Christianity is sweeping across the Celtic Isles. The book recreates the daily life, magical practices, politics and spiritual lives of the Ancient Celts during this historic turning point. During this time of crisis, love blooms between Ethne, a Druid healer, and her patient, a Fennid warrior. Their passionate affair suffers a tragic blow when Ethne is called upon to become the High Queen. The section we bring to you comes at the beginning of the tale after Ruadh is gored by a boar and becomes the patient of the enigmatic Ethne. You can find out more about Ellen on the Celtic Heritage website, buy her book on Amazon and also find out more about the Order of the White Oak on their website. You can find more details on our Contributor Page.   Up Ye Rock Ye by Saor Patrol The unique sound of Scotland in the 21st century, bringing the sounds of the past into the present and launching the listener into an exciting future for this Scottish band based at their Kincardine headquarters in Scotland.

Let me drink deep the endless cup, The cauldron, the grail - let me sup Deep and my soul be filled. To those behind the face of form, Present since the time of Dawn, Ever-here, everywhere - seen and unseen, I call on you to wipe my soul clean. Let he who ever-chatters be stilled. Let us be one, you and me, The tired and bound, the wild and free. Sing to me in voice pure and clear, Open my mind so my ears can hear. May the words of my pen be truly skilled. You and I have known each other long, Aeons have passed since your first song Filled my heart and drove me to tears. Yet have I grown deaf over the years - Logic and reason have been my shield. Now I hear you sigh in the whispering grass, Hear your laugh amongst leaves as I pass. Let my ears finally hear your voice. Be aware - that I have made this choice At whatever cost, let them be healed.   Listener Feedback Arlene We read an email from Arlene and give our thanks for an iTunes review.   The Cauldron Born by Damh the Bard On Midwinter's Day from the album The Cauldron Born is perfect for the season of Midwinter.

Go along to their shop to see the details.   Promo - Contagious Scott Sigler Scott Sigler makes amazing podcasts out of amazing stories and Contagious is no exception.Across America, a mysterious pathogen transforms ordinary people into raging killers, psychopaths driven by a terrifying, alien agenda. The human race fights back, yet after every battle the disease responds, adapts, using sophisticated strategies and brilliant ruses to fool its pursuers. The only possible explanation: the epidemic is driven not by evolution but by some malevolent intelligence. Standing against this unimaginable threat is a small group, assembled under the strictest secrecy. Their best weapon is hulking former football star Perry Dawsey, left psychologically shattered by his own struggles with this terrible enemy, who possesses an unexplainable ability to locate the disease’s hosts. Violent and unpredictable, Perry is both the nation’s best hope and a terrifying liability.   Promo - The Dark Side of Fey The Dark Side of Fey promises to be a lighthearted & informative pagan podcast. Recorded in Southern Ontario, the podcast will provide information on events happening in Kitchener, Waterloo, Guelph, London & Toronto, as well as discussions on various topics of interest to the modern pagan.
