The roots of war and conflict are apparent in how we are socialized to live our daily lives. American political and economic policies and our social imagination of the “other” entice us into a zero-sum game where mutual flourishing feels impossible. This way of thinking is inconsistent with the spiritual path of Jesus and his disciples. Instead, we are invited to wage peace within ourselves and between each other because peace and justice are inextricably linked. www.TheLoftLA.org

In this episode, we continue our Collateral Damage series—where we're thinking about women during wartime, and the unique price they pay. As various wars and conflicts continue to mount around the world, from Ukraine to Gaza, to Sudan and beyond, we're wondering: where are the women at the negotiating table? The number of women and girls living in conflict-affected countries continues to mount, reaching 614 million people in 2022—a 50-percent increase from 2017. What do governments and NGOs need to do to make sure that women's needs do not fall through the cracks?Joining us for this episode is a very special guest:Dr. Yael Braudo-Bahat: Dr. Yael Braudo-Bahat is the co-director of Women Wage Peace, an Israel-based organization with the goal of empowering women from diverse communities to build trust across divides, leading in turn to a unified demand for diplomatic negotiation, with full representation of women, to end the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

How sustainable is such a “battle footing” approach? How important is the “secret weapon” of Eph 6:10-20, Christian esprit de corps, camaraderie, and community? How can we best signal our support for one another as fellow combatants in the great controversy? Granted that Paul in Eph 6:10-20 is offering a final metaphor for the church, what may we learn from the passage about our individual battles against sin and temptation? ...

Waging Peace – September 23, 2023 by Percy Harrold
I have a few very clear memories of Jimmy Carter. Not so much his actually presidency. It was all the fervor and excitement leading up to his election. Then after leaving office, President Jimmy Carter has done an incredible amount of humanitarian work. All this is on my mind as he has decided on home hospice care as he approaches the end of life. These are a few of my memories and some of my thoughts. Thanks for listening! I invite you to share this podcast, offer a comment or leave some feedback.

As a soldier serving in the US military, Diana Oestreich heard God's call to disarm her gun while on the battlefield and turn towards peacemaking. As we hear from her in this episode, Diana's radical conviction of peacemaking offers us a renewed sense of our own calls to be Everyday Peacemakers. She invites us to remember that at the core of how we vote and engage in politics must be an other-centered practice because we all belong to each other.

"A beautiful and gut-wrenching memoir, Waging Peace exposes the false divide between loving our country and living out our faith's call to love our enemies--whether we perceive our enemy as the neighbor with an opposing political viewpoint, the clerk wearing a head-covering, or the refugee from a war-torn country. By showing that us-versus-them is a false choice, this book will inspire each of us to choose love over fear." - from https://www.dianaoestreich.com/waging-peace Buy Diana's book directly here: Waging Peace Book To help sustain our work, you can donate here To check out what RLC is up to, please visit us www.redletterchristians.org Follow us on Twitter: @RedLetterXians Instagram: @RedLetterXians Follow Shane on Instagram: @shane.claiborne Twitter: @ShaneClaiborne Common Hymnal information: https://commonhymnal.com/
Author and self-proclaimed ‘aspiring peacemaker,' Jason Porterfield, returns to the show to walk Bad Roman co-hosts, Craig Harguess and Abby Cleckner, through his new book, Fight Like Jesus: How Jesus Waged Peace Throughout Holy Week. Come Spring we tend to look straight to Easter, to the miracle of the resurrection, but just how much do we miss when we forget the why and how of what led up to Christ's crucifixion? By taking an in-depth look at each day in the final week of Jesus' life, Jason's book is a guide and game-changer for any Christian who still thinks Jesus died to protect us from a wrathful God. God is love! He is not a hammer or sword-wielding warrior, but a force of mercy, humility, and reckoning. How often do we forget this today? How often do we use the bible to justify violent means to imagined peaceful ends? This episode is a challenge to you to look at yourself, your actions, and if they reflect what you think you believe. It can be easy to think we are on the right side of the resurrection, that we, of course, are on the side of Jesus, but it is just as easy to fail to see we are the ones plotting against the way of peacemaking, that we are the ones holding the hammer over our savior on the cross. We invite you to listen with an open mind, to humble yourself to the folly we all are susceptible to fall into in the midst of miracles. To learn more about Jason's work and message connect with him on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram. For options of where to buy his book please visit his website (just in time for Easter!!).

Making the future while surviving a war. In humanity's never ending war stories, combat makes the news, but the macho gaze misses the complex reality and tends to ignore the role of women in war.

Virginia guides our trio through an exploration of Gaia theory, and of course we wander and stray "off" topic only to end up precisely where the essence and truth of our Great Mother would have us BE.We wend our way through the passages of personal struggles with death, war and physical and emotional pain to meet our unending capacities for healing, presence and compassion. And if we can practice integration and balance for ourselves, we know that we can (and will) transform pain and suffering for the collective. Is this so?

By Amy Goodman & Denis Moynihan All too often, as men launch and fight wars, women and their children are the ones who suffer and die.
In an age where tech dominates our lives, we spend so much time on social media. Christians need to face the facts. Whether we like it or not, social media is a big part of the public square of the day, and for the Christian called to represent Jesus and to help point others to Him, in many situations, social media can either make or break our Christian witness. In this episode, Aaron discusses lessons he has learned from operating as a pastor on social media and details ways he has struggled to represent Jesus well in interactions with other Christians. He shares a story about an exvangelical meme, an explosive comment section, and the surprising ways Jesus used it to teach him a lesson on the value of humility, understanding, and waging peace (rather than war) on social media.
Asylum Speakers Podcast with Jaz O'Hara: Stories of Migration
Today's podcast episode is about a country very close to my heart - Sudan.Like most people in the UK, I grew up without any knowledge of what was happening in Sudan. In my history lessons at school I learnt about the Holocaust and the ethnic cleansing that happened during the second world war, but I learnt nothing about the current genocide in Sudan that continues to this day. It wasn't until I went to uni and I somehow blagged my way onto a scholarship programme to study Mandarin in Beijing, (a story for another time), but I was sharing a room with a now good friend of mine Anna, who was studying the genocide in Darfur (a region in Sudan) for her degree. She was my first introduction to the situation there. She gave me the context, she told me stories about what she was reading, and I remember lying in bed one night in our room in Beijing, watching a film together called ‘Attack on Darfur' - a hollywoodised, but pretty accurate depiction of what is happening there.That film still haunts me honestly. This is a warning for anyone who watches it - it was the most heartbreaking film I've ever seen, but it served a very important purpose for me. Fast forward about 5 years or so and I found myself in the Calais Jungle refugee camp for the first time, chatting to a guy there who told me he was from Darfur. As he talked about how his village had been burnt to the ground and he showed me the scars on his legs from where bullets had hit him, I thought back to that film and those conversations with Anna, and I was grateful that I knew even just a little bit about what he was telling me. I realised though that I still had a lot to learn.Since then, I've met many wonderful Sudanese people along my journey. I'm happy to call some of them my best friends, you guys might remember my conversation with Awad in Episode 2, and I also have a Sudanese foster brother. This episode comes after many conversations with them about the best way to encourage understanding and awareness for the people of Sudan. It aims to be a comprehensive introduction into the history, but through personal stories that make this information accessible to everyone.In it we hear from three wonderful women sharing their knowledge and stories about Sudan. First, Sonja and Maddy, from an amazing organisation called Waging Peace who support the Sudanese community in the UK, then Marwa, who shares her personal experience of living in and leaving Sudan. Her testimony is an honour to be able to include and share with you.
