Episode 5 - From Bystander to Ally
Episode 5 looks at how behaviour that undermines women is often ignored rather than challenged. It suggests that we all have a responsibility to change from being a bystander to an ally. Hosts Jane Day and Helen Cameron listen in as Tim, Nathan and Steve role play a conversation about choosing the next minister. It is the last of 5 episodes preparing for the release of the findings of Project Violet on 2 May 2024. Tune back in on that day for Season 2. For more information visit www.projectviolet.org.uk
A podcast is usually a recording of two or more people having a conversation. So much of
church life is sharing conversation with one another, Sometimes we speak to others directly,
on other occasions we might listen to a conversation between two people within a meeting.
Sometimes a conversation happens and is retold to us afterwards. In all these examples we
are invited to listen and to reflect on what is said.
We invite you to listen to these podcast conversations between Jane and Helen and their
guests. And we invite you to reflect together as a group: on what is said and what this might
mean for your church life together. We trust that your reflections will lead you to encounter
God at work in this conversation we share. We offer the following questions to support
your listening and reflection:
What happened in the podcast?
How did you feel as you listened to the conversation?
What challenged, stimulated, or disturbed you?
What core values emerge as you think about the conversation in the podcast?
What values are different from yours?
Where is God present for you in this conversation?
Where is God present for others?
Does this conversation remind you of another Scripture passage, a hymn, or other resources
from your own testimony?
What ways of being Baptist speak to this conversation?
Are you affirmed or challenged in your present actions or beliefs?
What questions still linger?
What do you need as a church?
What will you do now?
