Out of insecurity we piggyback on the methods, styles, and audiences of others, sometimes purposefully and sometimes without thinking about it. It's a risk to be original. If we don't take the risk the world loses out on the unique story we have to share that no one else can.

Thanks for listening today. Come back Friday to hear a guest conversation.

Can males and females co-lead? Kathy and Karl talk about their journey in leadership and ministry at The Refuge and their new "Faith Circus" project–high-wire conversations with the occasional elephant in the room.

Difficult issues are normal territory for these two and we talk about how their community works through painful or contentious issues like Gay Marriage in ways churches and communities rarely do.

Do you enjoy Spark my Muse?

Your support is loved and appreciated at patreon.com/sparkmymuse for just $1 (or more) where you can help make big decisions, co-create, get some goodies, and come to events. I've posted specific question for you to answer in this new era. THANK YOU!

Thanks for listening!

The journey to finding our Identity shifts but what we often don't realize is that the nature of identity is a only construct; and that we employ many weak surrogates to comfort ourselves along the way.

Come along and co-create with Spark My Muse in the NEW ERA of collaboration on the show. At Patreon.com/sparkmymuse I leave questions for listeners to answer. YOU decide on guests, topics, SWAG (t-shirts, mugs, and other cool stuff), and plenty of other important directions and decisions for the show now, moving forward. Collaboration SPARKS -MY- muse...so no more going it alone. It's YOU who are MY sparks and I need to co-create with you to make this happen. It only takes $1 to be part of this tribe and play with us. We welcome you with open arms. Future events are in the works and your input is needed now.

Spark My Muse is heard in 149 countries and all 50 states in the U.S.A.

Thanks for listening.

Are there other ways you can help? YES!

Much love and many blessings to you,
