The Genesis Podcast

"I would say look at your ministry, and if you don't have some part of your ministry that might break your heart, you need to push a little further."  In this episode, The Rev. Peggy Bryan and her ministry partner, Jackie Fanning, talk about Stepping Stones - a New Episcopal Community with men within, and re-entering from, the prison system.  

"There's something about bringing together people who have been on the margin... that leading together and being together just feels a little different."  The Gathering, a community based in LA, brings together a group that has been historically underrepresented in the Episcopal Church - Asian Americans.  In this episode of The Genesis Podcast, Peter Huang and Sharon Crandall talk identity, belonging, and what it means to see the image of God in ourselves.

Episcopalians often pride themselves on the beauty of their sacred spaces.  But most of us haven't been able to gather in those spaces since the COVID-19 pandemic began.  What can we learn from a community that hasn't had a sacred space to call their own... in 12 years?  Katie talks with The Rev. Kevin Johnson and Gloria Bender about their experience at St. Alban's in Arlington, and why they've "learned more about being church... by not being in A church."
