The Deep End

Carl Jung was clear that there is no way spiritually forward without facing our worst nature that we find in the dark. Just as there is no way to heal cancer without knowing it up close so will there be no justice until we look upclose at what is most dark within us.

Human Beings are “allegedly” made in God’s image. If so, God is first and foremost Creative and if we are made in her image then we are, first and foremost creative. The Christian Bible starts in a GOD’s garden and ends in God’s City. How can we claim our creative energy in this dark time? [email protected]

Contemplation used to be reserved for monks, clerics, and or academics. Today we are all called to be contempletives, to engage in the great reflection of reimagining who we are as a human family.

Where is the “home” in “our journey is our home”? What is that place? Is it a place at all? Can we ever really go home? [email protected]

What is sacred? Is it different fro holy or divine? Is life sacred? Why? Humankind came up with the concept of sacred and the holy for purposes that serve us all... as well as the ongoing development of the human family.

America seems to learn and grow the most when we are at odds with ourselves and a threat to the very roots that give us life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. We are at such an impasse now. We see this as a moment ripe with possibilities of a new vision of who and what we can be and become.

How is it we learn to be who we are with all our biases and prejudices? What is this process of socialization and internalization of our values and ideologies? And, how can we begin to see this process and consciously rewrite parts of who we are?

We try to be honest about our own racism and look at some of the underlying assumptions that make it such an insidious phenomena as not so much a problem of people of color but a problem of “whiteness”. As well, we address the huge systemic nature of racism and the forces that keep white folks from seeing it. [email protected]
