This meditation is for those that might be struggling to integrate a state of equanimity and peace into making a change in the world. We often feel that, if we release into non-judgement about the way things are, how are we to make the change that needs to be made in the world. We will breathe into a calm, attentive state, and then discuss and consider this topic.

Reverend Ben Fitzgerald-Fye joins the show to discuss his experience as a gay minister and progressive faith. Ben gets into the treatment changes with homosexuals, acceptance, and responsibilities within Presbyterian churches and religion as a whole. We also discuss Christian politics, justice, and the lack of empathy as society progresses, and how we can fuel it back into humanity.

By the end of this episode, you will learn to understand other people, have compassion for people, and deal with the things that have been swept under the rug. Stay tuned, and enjoy the podcast!
