Thin Space

Friendships are hard, complex, and often do not have defined expectations. For the next couple of episodes, we're going to navigate the complexity of friendships: how do we make them, what makes a good friend, and what happens when it's time for friendship to end? Join us on this journey!

Disclaimer: Josh and Hannah acknowledge that this conversation does not address the complex and nuanced experiences of friendship LGBTQIA+ persons, or anyone who does not identify as cisgendered or heterosexual. They did not feel equipped to speak for those experiences, but hope to have that conversation in the future with someone who is.

Let us know if you have any questions! -Rev. Josh Esparza

Reconstruction can be intimidating, especially when we have more answers than questions. We hope these episodes have given you some space to ask harder questions, to be okay with the unknown, and long for a spirituality that is as vibrant and dynamic as you are.

Deconstruction takes your ship in a bottle and shakes it all up. This leads us to wonder, why we were building a ship in a bottle, to begin with. Faith cannot just be that which is certain. Faith requires risk, and faith changes as we discover new things about ourselves and the communities we are in. How has deconstruction affected your faith journey?

Deconstruction can be hard, scary, and isolating. We hope this episode gives you hope. The journey of deconstruction often comes with a lot of loss, but let's remember that Father Richard Rohr says "a person only experiences true change through great love or great loss". Sometimes the deconstruction journey can be both. With us, your questions are always welcomed and your voice will always be heard.
