Podcasts about fire an american epistle

Danté is the author of Shoutin' in the Fire: An American Epistle, an award winning writer, an ordained minister, a husband, and a father. Over the last six months, his words have been a beacon of hope and a reminder of our shared humanity.  We talk about the need to sustain resistance, the way faith can bring out our best and our worst, and the harm that white supremacy causes us all. Danté's stories of his family — from his grandparents down through his children — are so beautiful and full of love. He reminds us that it is ultimately about lifting each other up. I find it magical that this conversation with a Reverend comes out during these last few days of Ramadan.  Please enjoy the most lovingly eloquent — Danté. Danté's IG Danté's Website Leah's IG

Despite the evidence around us, how can we awaken to God's posture of love and liberation for the earth? On the fifth Sunday after Epiphany, Virginia Cumberbatch names the disruption, disappointment and injustice we face, while guiding us to the liberation movements of acknowledging, awakening, and anticipating God's loving presence all around us and our world. [Isaiah 40:21-31] Reflection How might we renew our strength, our faith, in the midst? How can the uncertainty or mystery of our human condition embolden us in our collective purpose for equity and liberation? How can we entrust the big, the unknown, the scary to God's hands? Resources Book: Shoutin' In the Fire: An American Epistle by Dante Stewart  

On what a Black man learned about America from white Christianity; on what football players need to know about the system they occupy; on how a Facebook screed became a terrific manifesto; on the book he dreamed of writing.

What hope might you create space for in order to stay close to God's promises? Virginia Cumberbatch opens up about audaciously holding on to hope through seasons of challenges, disappointments, and injustice.  [Psalm 105:1-5]   Reflection What would it look like to create space to reflect on the promises God has kept? How can the uncertainty or mystery of our human condition embolden us in our faith and purpose? What promises have you dismissed or declared obsolete that God might be calling you to resurrect and reclaim? Resources Book: Joy Hunter by Alexis Jones Book: Shoutin' In the Fire: An American Epistle by Danté Stewart

How might uncertainty propel us deeper into the mystery and revelation of God's grace in the midst of injustice, suffering, and oppression? Virginia Cumberbatch sits with the sense of being out of control in our chaotic and heartbreaking world to find faith in learning to trust and work toward God's Dream when we do not currently see it. [Psalm 99:1-5]   Reflection How might we invite a spirit of exploration and curiosity in the midst of uncertainty? How can the uncertainty or mystery of our human condition embolden us in our faith and in our purpose? What's one thing this week you can invite spirit led revelation?

Where do you return for renewal when your heart feels heavy with sorrow? Christopher Mack holds recent national tragedies up to the beatitudes and wonders how they invite us into an alternative to the violence of our world, while simultaneously creating space for us to process the hardships we encounter while partnering for God's Justice. [Matthew 5:3-12]   Reflection Where do I most struggle to see God present and enveloping my own life? Is there a situation or group in your world where it's hard to imaging God? How might you open yourself to Radical Love? What invitation in the beatitudes might there be for action and contemplation this week?

In this episode, Heather and Danté discuss something we often forget, that just as we have changed, we need to make room for others to grow and change too. Danté is open about the progression of his beliefs, and how he, as a Black man, has said things in the past about the Black experience that he regrets. Black literature was a major part of Danté's faith and growth experience, which is why his book is so heavily sourced by Black writers. Danté brings a passion to every conversation he enters, as well as an invitation to grow and learn together. You will be encouraged, enlightened, and challenged as you listen to Danté explain what it means to shout in the fire.   Guest Bio Danté Stewart is a writer and speaker whose voice has been featured on CNN, The Washington Post, Christianity Today, Sojourners, The Witness: A Black Christian Collective, Comment Magazine, and more.

Danté Stewart is the author of “Shoutin' in the Fire: An American Epistle.” Danté grew up in a Black Pentecostal community in South Carolina, but when he walked on to play football at Clemson University, he suddenly found himself in a very different faith environment. He kept getting drawn into white megachurch communities. The people he met were always nice and welcoming. They made him feel special. They assured him that Jesus didn't see Black and white, that it was just one big Christian family. But after a few years of immersing himself in his new faith, Danté had an awakening. While he was dealing with the emotional pain of seeing young Black men killed by police on TV and across his social media, his new church family were doing their best to ignore it altogether. Talking about his lived reality as a Black man made white congregants uneasy. He may have felt welcomed there, but they were the ones who always belonged. And so Danté threw himself into Black liberation theology, reading an entirely different interpretation of scripture. One that connected him to a long line of leaders like Martin Luther King and, his main source of inspiration, James Baldwin. This week on the Reckon Interview, Danté Stewart discusses his experiences moving among faiths, whether Black Southerners and white Southerners worship the same God, advice for people who are struggling with their faith, and a lot more.

We can get so caught up in how we are seen that we miss opportunities to course correct and expand our views on the world around us. And admitting you made a mistake or that you changed your mind can feel like jumping into shark infested waters. The process of expanding our views and self-correction involves connecting meaningfully with other's experiences and needs so we can see the world outside of our own experience.Sometimes we take in important new data that activates protective behaviors like defensiveness and control while navigating feeling disoriented and uncertain. How we move through these moments rarely looks or feels graceful. Especially because parts of us still resist the discomfort that leaves us feeling out of sorts. But when you commit to growing as a leader and as a human your work is more than an intellectual and tidy process.And it requires deepening relationships with others so you can truly understand from your heart the needs and perspectives of others. Today's guests were willing to share hard and vulnerable stories from their lives and perspectives and what started as a conversation in DMs expanded into this roundtable discussion.Cha Barefield is a powerful speaker, and the host and creator of "The Cha Show".

She believes that when you speak about things that matter to you, you will invariably speak about things that matter to everyone.

Brad speaks with the Danté Stewart about his journey into, and then out of, the White Church. Stewart grew up a Black Pentecostal until he reached university. There he began attending a White megachurch. He spent years in White churches convinced that the Jesus worshipped there--one coded as a White American, as superior to the one found in the Black church, as the true and right way to be a Christian and an American--was saving him from his own blackness. The murder of Trayvon Martin, the election of Donald Trump, the massacre of the Charleston 9--these events and more slowly opened his eyes to the way White Jesus had made him anti-black.

Leaving white evangelicalism is one thing. Leaving white spaces and white theology is quite another. Writer and activist Dante Stewart joins us today to discuss his new book Shoutin In the Fire: An American Epistle. and how he escaped slaveholder religion in his quest to uncover the heart of Christianity. His journey as a black, Christian, American out of predominantly white spaces offers a path forward for all of us who are longing for liberation from the oppressive subculture that is American evangelicalism. Drawing on the stories of his youth, black literature, and black theology, Dante invites us to do the necessary work of deconstructing and even decentering white voices, white spaces, white theology, and white exceptionalism. He shares his own struggles with the trauma and loss of identity when he fled evangelicalism in search of a freer faith. Stewart draws from the black voices like Toni Morrison, James Cone, James Baldwin, and Maya Angelou to show us a better future, one free from oppression, domination, and the dehumanizing aspects of white supremacy. There is another way of being Christian that has nothing, absolutely nothing to do with white evangelicalism and Stewart shows us the Way. He also gives us a glimpse into his writing style and process, as he continues to find his voice and hone his craft as an artist. He asks us to reclaim and reimagine spiritual virtues like rage, resilience, and remembrance—and explores how these virtues might function as a work of love against an unjust, unloving world.BioDanté Stewart is author of Shoutin' In The Fire: An American Epistle.

At top of the episode, Joey's pastor Josh Surratt joins to talk about big church buildings, whether he's comfortable with Joey's different approaches to Christian faith, if he'd like to be a celebrity pastor and if there's anything he dislikes about the church he leads.   Within white evangelical church cultures, many black people have  found their voices and convictions unvalued.  It's a very ugly truth but many white, evangelical churches embrace black membership and even love “the look” of having black leadership.  But once black leaders use their God-given leadership and insight to influence – or at the very least – to share their hearts with white people, it's viewed as "stepping out of line," even sinful.  Dante Stewart, former defensive back of God's favorite college football team, Clemson Tigers, wrote a book called “Shoutin' in the Fire: An American Epistle;  in which he shares his reasons for permanently leaving white evangelicalism, why it's not his job to help white people change, and ways to help us all reimagine spiritual virtues like rage, resilience, and remembrance, exploring how these might function as a work of love against an unjust, unloving world.  How's that for a run-on sentence!  Dante Stewart / Twitter / Instagram / Website / Book on Amazon Pastor Josh Surratt / Twitter / Instagram Books mentioned in this episode:  More Beautiful and Terrible History by Jeanne TheoharisThe Blood of Emmett Till by Timothy B.

Danté Stewart's book Shoutin' in the Fire: An American Epistle is one of the most stirring and powerfully written that we've encountered on the podcast. This conversation with him is comparable. He's engaging, funny, and erudite all at once, and he has critical things to teach the white church if we'll listen. He's also super well-read, and he wants you to be too. Here are the five authors/books he mentions in the episode:Robert Jones Jr. (The Prophets)Deesha Philyaw (The Secret Lives of Church Ladies)Kiese Laymon (Heavy)Jason Reynolds (Look Both Ways)Jesmyn Ward (Sing, Unburied, Sing)This is one of those interviews that was so rich we had to trim it down significantly for time.
