HAPPY APRIL FOOLS! What is the gift of Sacred Clowns, Holy Fools, Jesters and comedians from a cross-cultural viewpoint? What is the Medicine Gift for these amazing Archetypes? How do they serve the world? Yes, Humor but there's more to it, enjoy! www.KristenaWestArt.com

Because we come in hope, bearing our gifts of time and care and prayer; we come trusting that God has a future; and however foolish this may sound to a cynical watching world, our paying homage today affirms that indeed, God holds the future in his hands. Which is good news for those people who would rather not watch on cynically, but rather journey on hopefully together through this life. A talk for The Epiphany, 8 January 2023.

Warren continues to create a space where we get to hear the very best from all the artists. Thank you for listening.

He has received a Master of Letters in “Biblical Languages and Literature” from St Mary’s College (University of St Andrews) with a work on lexical semantics of the New Testament.

His publications include Hidden Criticism? Methodology and Plausibility of the Search for a Counter-Imperial Subtext in Paul (Mohr Siebeck 2015 and Fortress 2017) and Paul’s Triumph: Reassessing 2 Corinthians 2:14 in Its Literary and Historical Context, (Peeters 2016).

"Henry David Thoreau, by no means the most conventional man of his time, lamented on his death bed, “What demon possessed me that I behaved so well.” He would have taken comfort in Holy Fools. They remind us of a deeper sanity that is sometimes hidden beneath apparent lunacy: the treasure of a God-centered life.” - Jim Forest (Praying with Icons) Jim Forest is the author of numerous books, including The Root of War is Fear: Thomas Merton’s Advice to Peacemakers. He serves as International Secretary of the Orthodox Peace Fellowship. In this episode, Jim shares tales about his friendships with Dorothy Day, Thomas Merton, Daniel Berrigan and Thich Nhat Hahn. The gentle straightforward nature of this conversation rallies around a pilgrim way of living in pursuit of embodying love and justice. Jim offers reflective wisdom on marriage, works of mercy, and guidance for those in the earlier stages of life. You can learn more about Jim's work at jimandnancyforest.com.

This is a beautiful and frightening world. It’s no wonder that so many of us long for certainty, for principles and concepts and moral ground that doesn’t shift too much beneath our feet. But there’s a flip side to everything. When we get too certain, too sure, our hearts and minds get rigid. In the Hindu story Viddhi Kooshmandam, the career of a simple young man gives us a glimpse into another alternative.Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/mythmatterspodcast)
