This week, I'm checking in with my co-host Cara Meredith. We took the summer off and now we're chatting about her favorite episode from the Hopeful Resistance Series, what her go-to shalom step for rest is, and how she uses babysitting as a means of peacemaking.  This is the first in a four part mini series of check ins this week. I think we all can agree with the past events in Charlottesville, we all need a good dose of hopeful resistance and so I pray these episodes inspire and encourage you, Sista.   Love, O        

Episode 39: Rest Hard, Play Hard, Treat Yo Babysitters Well

Shalom Sistas is a podcast hosted by Osheta Moore, a wifey, writer, entrepreneur, and mom who loves to talk Shalom with her favorite women, her Shalom Sistas.  While Shalom is often thought of as another word for peace, it’s actually a deep and wide concept of the world as it should be- whole, flourishing, and vibrant. Being a Shalom Sistah is as simple as seeing a need in the world and asking "how can I help?" Every episode Osheta will introduce a Shalom Sista who asked that question to share her story and give practical advice that will inspire and encourage women to be wholehearted and seek wholeness in the world right around her.  We don’t’ get preachy but we do get personal, practical, and at times a little playful!

Hey Friends, Here are the seven last words of Jesus we discuss today. Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do. Truly, I say unto you, today you will be with me in paradise. Woman, behold thy son. (Says to disciple) Behold thy mother. My God, My God, why have you forsaken me? I thirst. It is finished. Father, into thy hands I commit my spirit.   Big thank you to OK Factor for use of their song, Uncharted. Go grab it on Bandcamp. https://theokfactor.bandcamp.com It's Gorgeous.
