In this episode…
This autumn has pummeled us with so much bad news that just thinking about what our responsibilities might be to the wider world has to feel intimidating and exhausting.
This week, we welcome Steve Park, head of Little Lights Urban Ministries, to talk about how he’s managed to stay active and motivated to do some very hard, dispiriting work for over twenty years.
Then we will call specific attention to a few ideas that came up during the interview before we get led in prayer by Rev. Charles Drew.
