Podcast appearances and mentions of Lauren F Winner

Pour ce 9e épisode de Café noir et tableau blanc, Hélène Lebon s'entretient avec Megan Macdonald sur les rites, rituels et coutumes : en quoi nous rendent-ils heureux? Comment traduisent-ils notre identité? Peut-on les changer? On verra que les bouleversements sociaux, politiques et économiques depuis la pandémie ont soulevé bien des remises en cause! Le bonheur dans tout ça? Une habitude à la fois dans la performance de notre vie… PARTIE 1 - Représentation publique/ politique/ religieuse au niveau national et international : Définition : rituel, rite, routine, coutume quelle différence? - protocoles avec visites internationales, drapeau en berne, etc. : à quoi ça sert ? - fêtes et calendrier : judéo-chrétien + premières nations + immigration : le melting pot canadien respecte-t-il tous les rites et rituels de ses composantes sociales ? Actuellement il y a une revendication pour une meilleure reconnaissance des groupes minoritaires : comment cela se ressent, se traduit sur la scène politique? PARTIE 2 - Représentation publique locale et rites communautaires: - messes, match de hockey, cercles de femmeS : comment ces rites permettent-ils d'accéder à une certaine union/ appartenance/ reconnaissance avec nos pairs mais aussi avec nos ancêtres ? - codes de politesse : pure rhétorique ou ciment social nécessaire ? - enterrement, mariages et autres célébrations rythment les étapes de vie « sociale » = peut-on encadrer la joie? La peine? Limite : les risques d'exclusion, d'erreur, d'auto-isolement (réalité entre classes sociales, « generation gap », immigrants/ société d'accueil..) PARTIE 3 - Rituels / routine personnelle: -je me lève à 5:30 : nouvelle routine personnelle ou inscrite dans mon ADN avec la peur préhistorique du noir : Est-ce qu'on a des rites ou rituels « inconscients », prédéterminés? - l'identification à un groupe soudé et l'habitude de nouveaux rituels prennent du temps! - l'exemple du yoga : multidisciplinaire et pas que sur le tapis : des rites et pensées pour guider les actions de l'individu vers une paix d'esprit Limite : les risques d'endoctrinement / isolement ou questionnement face au groupe « majoritaire » = choisir ses rituels/ codes/ valeurs/ croyances LES LIENS DE MEGAN : Mudhouse Sabbath: An Invitation to a Life of Spiritual Discipline, Lauren F.

A reality that the Church has to continue to grapple with is the way that it has inflicted damage upon individual lives in manners that are unfaithful to its calling. Such essential practices of Christianity, such as prayer and the Eucharist, are subject to being tainted by toxic intentions of participants. Responding to this reality can produce two extremes; ignorance and rejection of the Church's issues out of refusal to accept imperfection or an outright rejection of an institution that is perceived to be irredeemable. How can the Church come to terms with harm inflicted while also recognizing the beauty that remains within God's gifts of Christian practice?In this episode, Chris and Eddie are joined by Lauren F. Winner, an Episcopal priest, historian, and scholar of religion who teaches at Duke Divinity School. Lauren is the author of the book “The Dangers of Christian Practice: On Wayward Gifts, Characteristic Damage, and Sin.” In her work and in this conversation, Winner challenges the assumption that the church possesses a set of immaculate practices that will definitionally train Christians in virtue. She reflects on examples of history where practice failed to produce virtue and what should be learned as the Church pursues a more faithful future.Resources:Get to know Rev.

“Sometimes I cannot say much about why I go to church other than what people who go to the gym say: I always feel better once I'm there; I feel better after; it is always good for me, not good in a take-your-vitamins way, in a chidingly moralistic way, but in a palpable way.” - Lauren F. Winner Today's Scripture:  Proverbs 3:8  This will be healing for your body and strengthening for your bones.  (CSB) Your body will glow with health, your very bones will vibrate with life!   (MSG) Other verses mentioned in the episode: My heart is broken within me, and all my bones tremble.  (Jeremiah 23:9a) All my bones shall say,     “O Lord, who is like you, delivering the poor     from him who is too strong for him,     the poor and needy from him who robs him?” (Psalm 35:10) A Forbes article quoting a Mayo clinic publication: “Most studies have shown that religious involvement and spirituality are associated with better health outcomes, including greater longevity, coping skills, and health-related quality of life (even during terminal illness) and less anxiety, depression, and suicide. Several studies have shown that addressing the spiritual needs of the patient may enhance recovery from illness.” If you want a place to see and answer the questions I ask in the episode and to keep track of the discoveries you make as we study Proverbs, we include a set of free journal pages for this devotional series in each of our Sunday emails  Free journal pages to follow the study:  http://www.getwisdom.link/email (www.getwisdom.link/email) http://www.getwisdompublishing.com (www.getwisdompublishing.com) http://www.graceandthegravelroad.com (www.graceandthegravelroad.com)

In this episode, we begin the conversation on Grief.  We discuss where grief can show up in our lives.  Also, the confusions with grief and how we should act towards people mourning.  We discuss how we look for something to say when our presence may be enough.  We touch on how grief was viewed in our past churches and denominations. Part 2 is an interview with Deacon Cindy Ritter.  Deacon Cindy hosts a grief support group and provides a great deal of good information for those who are mourning and those who know someone in mourning.

In this episode we will be talking about Sabbath and why it is important and how we make space for it in our busy culture. MENTIONED IN THE SHOW: Episode 39 of the Sorta Awesome podcast, Seeking Rest, Finding Delight, WHO'S TALKING ABOUT SABBATH ON-LINE: Shelly Miller-Sabbath Society Shelly Miller on Instagram #sabbathsociety PODCAST: Sorta Awesome podcast - Seeking Rest, Finding Delight - episode 39 BOOKS: Breathe - Bible Study Book: Making Room for Sabbath by Priscilla Shirer The Rest of God: Restoring Your Soul by Restoring Sabbath by Mark Buchanan Mudhouse Sabbath: An Invitation to a Life of Spiritual Discipline by Lauren F.

    From Amazon: "There are hundreds of metaphors for God, but the church only uses a few familiar images: creator, judge, savior, father. In Wearing God, Lauren Winner gathers a number of lesser-known tropes, reflecting on how they work biblically and culturally, and reveals how they can deepen our spiritual lives." Exploring the notion of God as clothing, Winner reflects on how we are “clothed with Christ” or how “God fits us like a garment.” In this "Shalom Book Club" episode, Cara and I discuss "Wearing God" by Lauren Winner. Have you ever picked up a book and wanted to love it so much but something keeps you from diving in?  Yeah...that's a little how Cara and I felt about "Wearing God" we both love Winner and we both wanted to jump right into the book, but we both had a hard time.  Cara read it last year so it was a re-read for her, I started is last summer and couldn't finish it.  As we chatted on the podcast, we realized that maybe it wasn't the book, but the season.  We both think Lauren F. Winner is the perfect author to read in the cooler months.  So we chat a bit about what happens when you're struggling with a book and how to reconcile the voracious reader in you with that sense of obligation that you must finish a book you start. We also share our favorite essays, and how we're both finding God in the every bit of our lives— adjusting to gluten-free eating and walking around downtown L.A. It's a really fun conversation and I hope you enjoy it. Don't forget to join us later this month when we discuss, "The Knockoff" The Knockoff: A Novel   Shalom in your Earbuds, Y'all!   ~Osheta  

“If you, like me, picture God in lots of different ways, or if sometimes God seems easy to speak about, and on some days you have no words for God, and sometimes you feel that there are too many words for God, so many that the abundance stumps you—if that is the case, then you […] The post #27—Wearing God, a conversation with Lauren F.
