My guest attended Princeton Theological Seminary has a heart for helping young women and women of color find voice. Khristi Lauren Adams is an author, pastor, the founder of the Becoming conference and she has been a campus minister and Chaplain at Azusa Pacific and Georgetown.

We touch on topics that concern nurturing the next generation, the damaging pressure to get married that can happen in churches (and the book she wrote about that), and much more.

Today is a reflection and an encouragement about understanding the terrain of opposition.

We forget that what we oppose changes the moment we interact with it, as do we. The place where you began your resistance stops existing though we may not realize it; and we are called to non place, and the imagined place of what is to come.

Go to SparkMyMuse.com for more information and links to bonus materials and a deeper dive the includes reflection questions.

You can also chip in at patron.com/sparkmymuse to see special updates, photos and videos of my travels to Santa Cruz for the 1440 Multiversity - On Being - Gathering Event.

I hope you enjoy the program and share it widely!

My conversation with Swedish theologian, scholar, professor and minister, Petra Carlsson is a captivating one.

We begin by following her unique road to discover the deeper and bigger questions of humanity and lived experience and her desire live a spiritual life in her decidedly secular homeland of Sweden.

Then, using the innovative work of the French Impressionist painter Édouard Manet (1832-1880) and we find correlations with Christian attempts at how God becomes re-presented in spiritual terms and categories–Asking the hard question, "What is actually sacramental?"

In her work, Carlsson uses some of the most strident critiques of Christianity (Nietzsche, Derrida, Foucault and Deleuze) to break open new worlds and ways of understanding the Christian story that are liberated from the dichotomies of the commentary or critique limitation we tend to employ.

If this all seeming too heady for you, I assure you, the whole conversation is quite accessible. Petra's work in ministry has given her ample opportunities to make these ideas potent and practical. Jump right in!
