Today is a treat: a piece from my friend Dr. Doug Jackson. I found these modern rendition of an all too often overlooked parable retold seven times in our context. It moved me deeply and I wanted to share it with you. I'm doing that with permission and the show notes ( find those at SparkMyMuse.com ) will have a link for you to read this piece yourself slowly and carefully to ruminate properly with it. It's powerful. We should absorb it. I want to because I have too long or too often not seen people as I should. Maybe you have too. It's a refreshing reminder.

You will see a donate button in the show notes. I'm being more forward about asking for financial help these days because my costs are going up. Any amount helps, but no amount at all has big consequences. To support monthly at any amount and get in on extras, check out the membership site https://patreon.com/sparkmymuse

SPARK MY MUSE is now heard is 157 COUNTRIES each Wednesday and Friday! Subscribe and download episodes so you don't miss a thing. An AMAZING summer line up and a mind-blowing Autumn guest list is something I'm practically squealing with delight about.

Thanks for sharing this show with friends, talking about the topics with your homies (you have "homies" right?), rating the show on iTunes, and contributing financially to keep it rolling along!

Be a Shining SPARK in your world.
