Steve Wiens is a spiritual teacher, writer, and pastor who loves helping people reconstruct their faith after their theological foundations have crumbled. His ecumenical and imaginative approach to spiritual development encourages people to let their deep questions lead the way into new and expansive understandings of God, themselves, and the world in which they live. We have a great conversation about why he doesn't want to be my friend, deconstruction, and reconstruction of faith, and why our practices matter in that process, Meister Eckhart's pathless path, contemplative spirituality, and being able to hold non-defensive conversations. Steve's a gift and I think you're going to really appreciate him.  Get Steve's book Shining Like the Sun here Find Steve, his podcast, and other writing here The book we mentioned - Meister Eckhart's Book of the Heart ---------- Check out information about the gathering of Post-Evangelical Pastors and Leaders in October here

Even during the quarantine, your life can still seem busy and out-of-control.  This book can help you find stillness in a busy world -- and reconnect with god through seven mindful practices.

On this episode of the Catalyst podcast, Jason Haynes sits down with Steve Wiens for a conversation about wholeness: What does it mean to be whole? And what does it look like to participate in restoring brokenness within ourselves, our neighbors, and the world around us.

Episode 21 features an interview with Steve Weins. Steve is the author of Whole and Beginnings. He is the pastor of Genesis Covenant Church and had a podcast called This Good Word. This interview is packed with great stuff - what an amazing conversation! We spend most of the time speaking about Steve's latest book, but it is a pretty free wheeling conversation. So much fun!Get Steve's latest book, Whole: Restoring What is Broken in Me, You, and The Entire World Some of What We Talk About:The wide inclusivity of restoration.What is broken and why do we need restoration?Shalom as wholeness (restoring what is broken)Moving to wholeness is a hopeful journeyThe arc that shoots through all of scripture is restorationWhat is the difference between a self-improvement project and a journey?How you find joy in the everyday, and why is joy important?He asked Eugene Peterson, “what do you think pastors are struggling with today?” The answer is so great, and tough to hear.What is the connection between the promised land and restoration, and why do we need to be strong and courageous in entering the promised land?We talked a lot about the temptation of Jesus, and what it means to think of Jesus as weak when we relate to him.Laying down the need to be seen as successful.Quotes in this Episode“Faith is a lot more about mystery than it is about mastery."“Mystery is not something we can never understand, it's something that we can endlessly understand.” Richard Rohr"What if pastors are supposed to be the people who model how to rest well…”"The promised land is not where all of our problems are solved... It is the place where you remember what it was like to be a slave and you begin fighting for the restoration of others.”“Thank God that God doesn't wait for perfect motivation.”"There are things that need to change in me; they just won't be changed by feeling bad about myself or trying really hardto fix them. That isn't how wholeness works. The journey of wholeness is not a self-improvement project. It's a journey of loss, trust, transformation, and eventually hope.” from Whole"...my own joy and enjoyment matter in measuring at least some of the metrics for indicating a successful Steve. I think I'm starting to learn that I can be a joyful pastor. Not a driven one, not a busy one, not a heroic one.” from WholeLinks and Resources:Steve's WebsiteWhole: Restoring What is Broken in Me, You, and The Entire WorldBeginnings: The First Seven Days of the Rest of Your LifeThis Good Word PodcastLamb: The Gospel According to Biff, Christ's Childhood Pal by Christopher MooreLast Days in the Desert Richard Rohr The Enneagram  Follow Matthew Brough on Social Media:TwitterFacebookInstagram This is a public episode.

We often define ourselves according to what we have to offer this world. But what happens when what we have to offer isn't enough? In this sermon, Steve Wiens shows us how our wounds and inability to offer something can actually be used by God in glorious ways.

Life can throw difficult situations our way. Marriage struggles, road rage, or in Mary's case, being an unmarried virgin pregnant with the Savior of the world. How do we handle those situations? Our guest speaker, Steve Wiens, talks about how God always wants to bring his wholeness (Shalom) into every situation and that we, like Mary, have the opportunity to partner with God in that.
