34. "Discovering Your Identity" with Jamie Winship


Listen Later

On Jamie Winship’s first day as a police officer in Washington, DC, his mentor told him, “Keep your mouth shut for one year,” and to listen closely. He applied this important lesson to his professional and spiritual life and found listening and abiding was the way to hear God’s voice and bring peace to the conflicted spaces he was working in. His methods were successful, and he was asked to do his reconciliation work across the globe to the world’s highest conflict areas.

Notes & Quotes:

  • “Abide is just a decision to stand next to and listen. Abiding just means the commitment to stay with. And, in the staying with, is where you learn everything.”
  • “I started asking God, “Can you show me another way to think about policing that I don't know?” I kept watching Jesus, reading through the gospels in Acts, and Jesus didn’t come to tell people what to do. He came to teach people how to know what to do.” 
  • “Do you know why God tells us to love our enemy? Because they’re not really your enemy, that’s why. You only have one enemy and that’s Satan . . . .”
