Latter-day Faith is, rightly, part of the Faith Journey Foundation, as its ultimate focus is trying to assist in the the life processes that simply "feel right" to our souls: our becoming our highest selves. This episode was originally prompted by a Facebook query in which a listener noted that I have been mentioning quite often that the early episodes of LDF are intended to be "foundational," groundwork for discussions that will follow, but he couldn't quite spot the full rhyme or reason for the various topics we've presented on up to this point. I recorded this episode as a response to his question that ended up moving into ideas such as the importance of "un-learning" certain things before we can learn new ones, and of our allowing ideas, judgments, assumptions, grudges, blinders, self-doubts, and so much more to "die" before we can be resurrected, able to enter the fulness of what it means to be both human and divine. To get there, I primarily share two framings (two approaches to the same thing): the Hero's/Heroine's Journey, and the basic gist of James Fowler's "stages of faith." Both have been pivotal in my own journey, and I wanted to share them afresh here in the early going of this podcast project. I hope you'll enjoy the result of my rambles, switchbacks and goofiness centered around some really profound stuff. Cheers!
