In today's episode, Jen welcomes author, parent who's survived those kiddo and teen years, and Episcopal minister, Jerusalem Greer. Jerusalem provides some golden nuggets in this episode so make sure to turn that volume up! She reminds us that, while this pandemic is harsh, "generations upon generations upon generations have weathered worse" and we can do hard things. There are things we can't (and maybe shouldn't) get our kids out of but that doesn't make us bad parents. That makes us more concerned about their wholeness than their happiness.

This is the second half of our conversation with Jerusalem Greer. Jerusalem is the Staff Officer for Evangelism in the Episcopal Church. On this episode we talk about how the Church is starting to plant seeds in this uncertain soil for the future, and how you can do the same at home.
Coming back from our summer hiatus, this it the first of two episodes with the wonderful Jerusalem Greer. Jerusalem is the Staff Officer for Evangelism in the Episcopal Church and her joy and energy about where the church is heading, even in these uncertain times, is a breath of fresh air. We talk about how the quarantine has impacted her work the Episcopal Church and what it's like to look to the future in the middle of disruption.

Rest is more than sleep or mindless consuming - it's a deep-seated principle and practice that God invites us to undertake for our own health and for the health of this fragile earth, our island home. In this episode, Bishop Michael Curry and hosts Kyle and Sandy discuss resting in and with the land. Just as we must remember to receive God's restoration ourselves, we also must let the creation rest and be restored. We hear from Lynnaia Main, The Episcopal Church's representative to the United Nations, discussing how we can adjust our mindsets from the fear of scarcity to joy at the abundance that surrounds us. We also hear from the Rev. Nurya Love Parish, the founder of Plainsong Farm, talking about how we can incorporate the concept of Sabbath rest into communal life and the life of the creation itself.

Prayer is inviting and dwelling in God's loving presence - a practice that can sometimes be daunting, but is ultimately one of the most important things we do as Christians. Whether by boldly offering our thanksgivings and concerns to God, simply listening for God's voice in our lives, or infusing our work with prayer, we can find ourselves drawing nearer and nearer to him. In this episode, Bishop Michael Curry and hosts Kyle and Sandy discuss prayer on the Way of Love. Andrea McKellar and Bishop Curry share some prayerful practices that take place beyond the church walls, including hiking, neighborhood walks, and phone apps that can remind us to take time to come before God every day. We also hear from Roger Hutchison, Director of Christian Formation and Parish Life at Palmer Memorial Episcopal Church in Houston. An artist, writer, and lay leader, Roger describes how prayer informs and shapes his work - especially around grief, painting, and his newest offering, The Very Best Day: The Way of Love for Children (Church Publishing, January 2020).

When we go on the Way of Love, we cross boundaries, listen deeply, and live like Jesus. Whether God calls us to go across the street or across the world, we are sent beyond our circles and comfort to witness to the love, justice, and truth of God with our lips and with our lives. In this episode, Bishop Michael Curry and hosts Kyle and Sandy discuss “going” on the Way of Love. We learn about both sides of the practice: having the faith to step out into the world and being able to receive the gift of hospitality graciously. Bishop Curry tells a story of trust - about coming to understand that God is already present, wherever we are sent. We also hear from the Rev. Katie Nakamura Rengers, founder of The Abbey, a church and coffee shop ministry in the Avondale neighborhood of Birmingham, Alabama. We learn about the ways this community both serves and is served by loving neighbors -- neighbors who might be looking for more than an excellent cup of coffee.

When we worship, we gather with others before God. We hear the Good News of Jesus Christ, give thanks, confess, and offer the brokenness of the world to God. So many of our worship experiences take place within a church building - it can be hard to imagine worship without candles and stained glass and pews - but there are many ways we can bring worship out into the wider world, knowing that God is out there, too. In this episode, Bishop Michael Curry and hosts Kyle and Sandy discuss worshiping on the Way of Love: Gathering in community weekly to thank, praise, and dwell with God. Bishop Curry reflects on how we can show God's love boldly in our communities while also being respectful of neighbors who believe differently. We also hear from Hugo Olaiz, associate editor of Latino-Hispanic resources for Forward Movement. Hugo tells us about a worship experience that by definition occurs beyond the church walls: Las Posadas. He explains his own practices of Las Posadas and reflects on the witness this tradition makes possible: witness to the importance of hospitality, of community, and of the story of the Holy Family.

Just like the disciples who heard the call to turn from their fishing nets toward Jesus, we are each beckoned to reorient our lives to God, falling in love again, again, and again. But what exactly are we turning from? And what are we to turn toward? In this episode, Bishop Michael Curry and hosts Kyle and Sandy discuss turning on the Way of Love: pausing, listening, and choosing to follow Jesus. Bishop Curry reflects on people who are helping us to find a new way in society, assisting us as we turn from fear, anxiousness, desperation, and sin, back toward confidence, boldness, hope, and redemption. We also hear from Ruth Anderson and Greg Farrand of the Second Breath Center in Greensboro, N.C., where people who are “overloaded, overscheduled, overwhelmed and overstimulated” can step away and reorient their lives. Ruth and Greg offer tips and ideas to get started along that path as we bring ourselves back to the most important things in life.

When God's Word becomes ingrained in our lives, we can better see God's activity within and around us and others. We can then tell that story in ways that are authentic to us and that others can understand. In this episode, Bishop Michael Curry and hosts Kyle and Sandy discuss learning on the Way of Love: reflecting on Scripture each day, especially Jesus' life and teachings. We hear from Jerusalem Greer, staff officer for evangelism at The Episcopal Church, discussing how parents can share their faith with adult children. Later, Kyle and Sandy interview the Rev.

If we were to distill the essence of the Christian faith, we would always come back to the reality of love – not as a sentimental feeling or a sugary concept – but as a disciplined and spiritual way of life. In this episode, Bishop Michael Curry and hosts Kyle and Sandy discuss blessing on the Way of Love: sharing faith and unselfishly giving and serving. We can bless others – and be blessed ourselves! – through the gifts of our presence and relationships with our neighbors. We also hear from Greg Russinger, co-founder of Laundry Love. This nationwide ministry exists not only to encourage churches to care for others but to help churches walk with and get to know their neighbors who need laundry assistance. In walking with, caring for, and even doing laundry among our neighbors, all of us can be changed and blessed.

On May 4th, the Diocese of NH will host an Episcopal Revival in the town of Windham, NH. We’re very excited about the upcoming event and have dedicated this week’s Red Church Door podcast to talking about it. This week’s episode welcome three guests. The first is the Rev. Zachary Harmon, the Vicar of St. Christopher’s Episcopal Church in Hampstead, NH and one of the event’s co-chairs. He shares with Colin where he got the idea for a revival in NH and what has surprised him most about planning such an event. We also welcome Jerusalem Greer, Staff Officer for Evangelism on the Presiding Bishop’s staff. Jerusalem tells her story of how she went from growing up a Southern Baptism in Alaska to being the central point person for Revivals through the entire Episcopal Church. Finally, we offer you a segment from a previous episode of our sister podcast, Priest Pulse where it’s hosts, Colin and Fr. Benjamin Gildas, interview the Rev. Dr. Patricia Lyons - the guest leader for the May 4th revival. Tricia, currently serves in the Episcopal Diocese of Washington as Canon for Evangelism. She is also on the the Presiding Bishop’s Cabinet on Evangelism. Dr. Lyons is one of the most sought-after teachers, speakers and preachers on faith formation and evangelism across mainline denominations.

On this week’s Priest Pulse, Colin and Fr. Laurence fly solo as they key up two MORE interviews from the FORMA conference in January. While in Indy, Fr. Ben and Colin sat down with Jerusalem Greer, who is currently (but was not yet at the time) staff officer for evangelism on the Presiding Bishop’s staff, to hear about the many projects she has going on around the Church. In our second segment, Fr. Laurence was able to talk with the Rev. Callie Swanlund to hear her thoughts on the recent screening of her awesome How2Charist project and what might be next!

Today our guest is Jerusalem Greer, member of the "Way of Love creation and leadership team with The Episcopal Church. Jerusalemis an author, public speaker, multi-hobby enthusiast, and blogger on her website jerusalemgreer.com. She is the leader for the upcoming Episcopal Province of New England Faith Formation Leaders Gathering all about the Way of Love. She was also just named staff officer for evangelism for The Episcopal Church. For Lent, The Episcopal Church and the Episcopal Church in Connecticut are embracing the Way of Love, encouraging folks to Turn, Learn, Pray, Worship, Bless, Go, and Rest. Welcome Jerusalem! Jerusalem calls us in from her farm in Arkansas. We begin our conversation about the Way of Love and Lent by asking what is the Way of Love and how she became involved in the creation and leadership. Jerusalem says that it is not a program, first and foremost, but rather it is a Rule of Life, similar to that of a monastic Rule of Life, with seven spiritual practices. It came out of the Presiding Bishop’s launch of the Jesus Movement and people’s reflections on how to participate. RenewalWorks later wrote a white paper based on its research showing that Episcopalians have a deep hunger for a deeper spiritual life. The Way of Love started with two questions: "how can we help disciple our people in practical ways?" and "how what does it mean to be a part of the Jesus Movement?” Alli asks how Jerusalem got herself involved. Jerusalem is very involved with FORMA and The Episcopal Church’s Evangelism team, and was asked to help come up with this initiative. They were in a room in Virginia Theological Seminary for many hours looking at various monastic traditions and writings, and came up with six practices to which they gave one-word names: Turn, Learn, Pray, Worship, Bless, and Go. The Presiding Bishop came up with the seventh, Rest. Although the Presiding Bishop starts with Turn and ends with Rest, Jerusalem assured listeners it's ok to begin and end wherever. For Lent, which begins on Wednesday, there are curriculums and various resources available at Episcopalchurch.org/wayoflove. One curriculum works through the seven words and practices and can be applied to small groups, bible studies, etc. There is also a curriculum dedicated for silent days and reflective days, perfect for Lenten retreats. It is also possible to look for resources on the website by word as well, and narrow it down by desired audience and media. Jerusalem said that the two Way of Life practices that she has felt God “pressing in,” are in Rest and Bless. She explains that she feels that Rest is really about posture and how we define Rest — treating yourself and true soul rest. She asks what practices can help her establish a resting soul rate, like a resting heart rate. For Bless, Jerusalem views it as Evangelism and how that looks like as a blessing, which is different than Go, which is more like Outreach. During Lent, the Episcopal Church in Connecticut will offer weekly reflections following the Way of Love from our Region Missionaries on all our social media platforms! All of this information will also be available on the ECCT’s weekly eNewsletters which you can subscribe to here.
In the final interview from Boston, we chat with Jerusalem Greer, staff officer for evangelism on the Presiding Bishop’s staff. She discusses evangelism, her new role on the PB's staff, more of what's coming up in the wider church, and what makes the CEEP conference so special.

We used Matthew 11:28-30 The Message (MSG) as our guide: “Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.” 2: We're praying for each other in the Shalom Sistas Hangout and Newsletter. Click the links to join and get your prayer on. 3: We have five questions we consider to create shalom in our schedules: Is this a stress-inducing routine or a life-giving rhythm? What will bring me into a resting heartbeat? What will bring wholeness? Does this rhythm reflect who God made me to be or who I think I should be? If someone tries to challenge the decisions I make to support my rhythm, can I advocate for it If someone tries to challenge the decisions I make to support my rhythm, can I advocate for it Two Important Reminders: 1: We’re going weekly now, so make sure to leave your five star reviews so people can find the podcast every week.

Jerusalem, her husband Nathan, and their two boys Wylie and Miles, live in rural Arkansas where they are attempting to live a slower version of modern life. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. From farm life to being outside, to exploring the liturgical calendar, we hear how Jerusalem lives her days. A girlfriend's conversation about her crazy name (you won't believe the family history on this one!), how she started into blogging, what makes for a good scrambled egg, and how to slow down and enjoy today are all covered. We hear about Jerusalem's Advent wreath, Sabbath bags, and what makes for a good pair of scissors. Part practical, part inspirational, this conversation won't disappoint as we live full swing in the Advent season. As we talk through what it means to practice faith in our everyday experiences, we pray this episode is an encouragement during a busy time of year. As you do your daily tasks, know that God is present. When we slow down we are able to notice his beauty. That is our prayer for you, a bit of slowing and noticing.

Today, I'm checking in with my co-host Jerusalem Greer. We took the summer off and now we're chatting about her favorite episode from the Hopeful Resistance Series, what her go-to shalom step for celebration and owning our belovedness and why it's super great when your car's radio breaks. This is the first in a four part mini series of check ins this week. I think we all can agree with the past events in Charlottesville, we all need a good dose of hopeful resistance and so I pray these episodes inspire and encourage you, Sista. Love, O

Hey Sistas, I'm so excited to share this special episode of Shalom in the City because I've been excited to share with you something I've been working on the podcast for FOR MONTHS. Actually, I've been wanting to provide this for you here on the show since before I started it. When I dreamed of starting a podcast I knew three things about myself: One: I'm obsessed with talking about Shalom. So I knew my podcast had to be all shalom all the time. And for those of you just joining the show on this episode, on the show our simple definition of the Hebraic concept of Shalom, is God's dream for wholeness, goodness, and yes, even peace for you and I right now, right where we are and every episode I invite a woman on who I think is practicing Shalom in some interesting way to share her story with us, our resident Shalom Sista is what we call her and it's been so much fun to introduce to you my friends and their passion projects. The second thing I knew about myself as a podcaster is that I love stories. I love to hear stories, learn from people who live differently than I do, and allow those stories to teach me compassion and give me inspiration for how to practice Shalom in my life. I hope that you've experienced a bit of that in the past year of podcast episodes. And finally, I knew that I would eventually bring on a panel of regular co-hosts to be our resident experts on different ways we can practice Shalom in our lives. The reason is I'm not an awesome small talker and while I love interviewing people, sometimes when I hang up with a guest, I have so many more questions and would love to invite them back on to keep talking and that's not always practical. Which is why my book club episodes with Cara are always my favorites, she and I have a fun conversations and we love to laugh with each other. Those episodes feel like a monthly check in with a dear friend. Plus, while I know so much about Shalom and I'm actively practicing it in my life, I know there are women who are better in certain areas that i can learn from them and my service to you through the podcast is to let you learn alongside me. Which is why, I'm thrilled to announce that starting in March, I am moving away from the purely interview format in order to learn more from three women who I am honored to call my friends. Each one has modeled wholehearted living in a broken world in unique and accessible ways. They're funny and kind, and intentional. But, they're just not three random women who I love, they're three women who have passions for Shalom in three distinct areas. There are three areas that I have noticed I think about peacemaking and living wholehearedly the most: 1: At home and in my community 2: In tough conversations around racial reconciliation 3: When I consume media, specifically when I read So, I had to think, if these are the areas I think about the most and where I need to most encouragement and have the most questions, wouldn't make sense to process these areas here on the podcast? I think so, because if I as your regular host and excited every single time I sit down to create an episode for you, I'll have more energy and it'll be a better conversation, one I hope inspires and encourages you. As I thought about these areas, it became pretty clear to me who I could have fun and helpful conversation with and I'm so excited to introduce them to you. The next season of the show and maybe longer, I'll be joined by these three amazing women. 1: For Shalom in our Home I'll be talking with Jerusalem Greer, an author, speaker, nest-fluffer, and World Class Pinterest Pinner. Once a month, she and I are going to be talking about what it looks like to live out Shalom in our homes and our communities, thinking about what it means to be wholehearted families, friends, and neighbors. We'll also dig into the ways that intentional spiritual practices and home traditions can produce shalom in our lives and the lives of those around us. You can find Jerusalem on her site, JerusalemGreer.com and that'll be in the show notes. Our hope is that at the end of the hour, you'll feel excited about loving your family and community, you'll try new recipes, you'll think about your rhythms, and you'll live wholeheartedly right in your home. 2: For Books you already know my book club co-host, Cara Meredith, so there's no change there. Cara can always be found on her site, Carameredith.com. Every month Cara and I will be talking about book through the lens of Shalom, what brokenness is the author address in her book and where do we see wholeness and healing in the book. Our criteria for a book club pick is non-fiction or fiction from woman of color because we know that these women's books often are not picked for book clubs. You can find the book list and join the conversation in the Shalom Sista hangout and I'll that link in the show notes. We love interacting with you about books and seeing the ways our picks stretch you to learn from authors you may never pick up. 3: And the last co-host is someone you've met before, Abby Perry. Abby was my guest for our Celebrate Shalom episode and I had always planned to have her come back on share more about the work she does with Be the Bridge, a racial reconciliation ministry lead by Tasha Morrison. Now, I know you might be asking how does this conversation fit into the show? Well, I deeply believe that we're experiencing racial tension in such profound way in our country. And Abby is uniquely gifted to help me model what does it look to have authentic conversations about race. Every episode we'll talk about our personal experiences with racial reconciliation efforts, discuss news/current events, and break down buzzwords that seem to polarize conversations before they even get started. We'll also be inviting you to submit questions or topics for us to discuss, and oh how I hope you will. This monthly hour exists entirely to be a gift to you, something that does not use its time inside your earbuds to pull you out of your immediate surroundings but to propel you deeper into them. Our prayers is that we will, by God's grace, model a conversation that is defined by charity, truth seeking, active listening listening, and testifying to this fact: Jesus has torn down the wall of hostility, making two groups one (Ephesians 2:14), and we far too often have bricks in our hands, rebuilding barriers when He has called us into open spaces. You can catch up with Abby on her site, JoyWovenDeep.com Every week I'll talk to one of these women, but the last week of the month I'll reserve for an interview because I do love to hear new stories and meet new women. So that's the first big change, the format. The second you might have picked up already and that's I'm moving to seasons. You might remember from my intro episode that I wanted to make sure I paced myself in producing the show because I'm in this for the long haul. Well, one thing I learned about myself is that I work best in short time frames with a small break in between. So, we're going to start our first season in March go through June take the first week of July off, have a mini-summer season from July-August. Again, take another week off and start back up with a September-December Season. I know that's a lot, so don't worry. I'll let you know when we're going to take break, just listen to the show and you'll know. So, since we're moving to seasons, I get to do something that again, I've always wanted to do, dive deep into on big idea over the course of several episodes. Y'all am bursting with excitement about this. Every Season, we're going to have an overarching theme that will guide our conversations. Every episode will address this theme in way, shape or form all the way from the rhythms of peace Jerusalem helps us form to the book Cara picks, we'll keep one theme in mind. We'll announce that them in the hangout, the newsletter, and then here on the podcast. In addition to the episodes, we're also providing a syllabus for the podcast that include further reading, the show notes, Shalom steps, which are our practical next steps, and maybe a printable or two. We want to enrich your listening experience so that your practice of Shalom is easier and more joyful. Those are only available through the newsletter so make sure you're signed up for free and that'll be in the show notes as well. So are you ready to hear March's theme? If you're in the hangout, you've probably seen the graphic and wondered what it means. Well, our March-June theme is: It's Hopeful Resistance. We're going to be exploring what does hope look like through the lens of Shalom and then how do we resist: division, defensiveness, and despair in a world that feels so chaotic and eager for conflict. I think we're all exhausted from 2016 and wondering how do we as Paul says in the bible, "not grow wearing in doing good". Well, the co-hosts and I think hopeful resistance is a good place to start and we hope you'll join us in March. Our Book club picks for the first season are: March: Hopeful Resistance The Sun is Also a Star (Nicola Yoon) April: Resisting Division (within Hopeful Resistance) ONE (Deidra Riggs) May: Resisting Defensiveness (within Hopeful Resistance) Hallelujah Anyway (Anne Lamott) June: Despair (within Hopeful Resistance) LaRose (Louise Erdrich) We're also planning a summer series that is going to be so fun, so playful, so full of nostalgia and good times so stay tuned for that too. Well, that's it, Sistas. Those are the two changes to Shalom. So what does that mean for this month. Cara and I will be back soon to talk about Oprah's new cook book, what we thought of the stories in it, what recipes worked for us, and if we plan on using as a part of our regular meal planning so subscribe so you don't miss it. Sistas thank you so much for your love and support of the show and know that you have a cheerleader in me as you seek Shalom in your family, community, city, and world. Bye and see you next time! Shalom in your earbuds, Osheta

On 12.4.16 Jerusalem Greer helped us enter into the longing of Advent. This season that begins the church year does not begin with the birth of Jesus. It begins in pain, fear, and longing. It is an invitation to open our hearts to the whispered promise of hope.
