    Resistance from Deep Faith

    Being brave together to meet the surges of ICE Reverend Jane Field is Executive Director of the Maine Council of Churches and an ordained Presbyterian (PCUSA) minister who has served Presbyterian, Episcopal, Methodist, and Lutheran churches in New York City, Connecticut, and Maine. She is part of the resistance movement against the surges of the ICE, the Immigration and Customs Enforcement. Like in Minneapolis, in Maine and all over the United States immigrant citizens became targets of violence. In this challenge for the communities, a resistance movement flourished. At the forefront there were also faith leaders and communities from different religious backgrounds. Jane Field is one of them. She says: “The Faith Community here in Maine was at the vanguard and the forefront of resistance efforts. We helped to push back against the activities of the ICE agents while they were here and against the federal government and Department of Homeland Security. We also worked at the forefront of aiding and assisting our immigrant neighbors who were under threat and being harmed. Many of them lived in lockdown in their homes or hiding in other people's homes. They were afraid to go to work, to let their kids go to school because those were places where ICE were waiting to snatch people. They would even snatch people out of their cars.” Jane Field speaks with great determination and hope about the emergence of this networks of trust:  “There was a network through a hotline of volunteers who were walking kids to school, driving people to work, getting groceries for people who were in hiding and delivering them to them so that they didn't have to go out of their homes. That was all grassroots and decentralized. That was all mutual aid. It was not done through the government, not even at the state or municipal level. It was all just volunteers.” In an interview for upcoming issue of evolve magazine, Elizabeth Debold speaks with Jane Field about resistance out of love and deep faith.

    The Art of Making a True Move

    Arawana Hayashi in dialogue with Elizabeth Debold   „The dance is more than the dancers,“ says Arawana Hayashi, creator of Social Presencing Theater at the Presencing Institute. Hayashi has worked with systems change catalyst Otto Scharmer to bring together her experience as a dancer with his work with organizations. What does it mean that the dance is more than the dancers? The dance has its own energy and coherence beyond, but not separate from, the dancers. In other words, the fields of connection between us hold wisdom that our bodies can sense. Social fields—the energy and knowledge implicit between us—can open pathways to understanding and response that the rational mind cannot see. The Art of Making a True Move is the title of Hayashi’s book. She has developed a practice that brings meditation and movement together that enable new shared potentials to be revealed. Working with the „stuckness“ that often gets in our way individually and collectively, Hayashi teaches us to respond from a deeper, embodied place that opens up ways to truly move through and beyond being stuck. A greater whole is tapped into that is accessed through the social field. “When we relax a little bit, then a gesture emerges that is not planned or thought about. That's what we call the true move. It comes out of nothing or a gap between discursiveness or conceptual frameworks. An openness that ties with genuineness and simplicity. And it can open completely new possibilities that we cannot access by thinking or individual insight.” In this conversation from an evolve LIVE event in 2025, Arawana Hayashi and Elizabeth Debold engage in an inquiry into the embodied knowing that leads to a true move: How can our embodiment become a pathway to wisdom? Why does an awareness of the social field open up the potential of our togetherness.

    The Magic in the Middle

    How may we practice hosting for the unfolding of Life?   Elizabeth Debold in Dialogue with Toke Moeller Thursday, January 15th, 8 pm CET   For thirty years, Toke Moeller has been hosting conversations that matter in a world of complexity, conflict, crisis, and division. These are the conversations that feel so necessary and yet so often are avoided. Inspired to bring people together to respond to the many conflicts that divide us, Toke trusted the human capacity for curiosity and care. With his partners, he developed The Art of Hosting, an approach to these conversations that comes from generosity--the generosity of holding a space as a host. The Art of Hosting opens up a participatory, communal form of leadership that Moeller has taken into 32 countries. And there was something else that opened up in this practice. They called it „The Magic in the Middle.“ What is this magic? A mysterious opening to a shared perception that happens when the participants let go of their assumptions and agendas and listen. Toke has reverence for this magic, feeling that it is inappropriate to try to pin it down. In an interview with evolve Magazin, he says: “When you come to that kind of gentle, conscious space, it's like the magic of life unfolding, not the magic that you want to cook up as mysterious. When we feel that goodness, that well-being, that wish to support each other and respect each other's lives becomes more important than being right.” In this Radio evolve, which was recorded at an evolve LIVE! Webinar, Toke Moeller and Elizabeth Debold inquire into the Magic in the Middle and the importance of hosting the conditions to create the future. How does hosting create a space for Life to unfold? What can we learn from the space between us about the future that wants to emerge? More about Toke Moeller: www.interchange-tomo.com

    A New Relationship to Time

    What can we learn from the past to create the future? Mike Kauschke in Dialogue with Roman Krznaric   Political Scientist and bestselling author Roman Krznaric is challenging our relationship to time. Inn his view we are stuck in a “Tyranny of the Now”, a “chronic short termism, an inability to see beyond the immediate here and now”. In his books “The Good Ancestor” and recently “History for Tomorrow” he invites us to see ourselves and the world in a much wider trajectory of time and unfolding that includes the times before us and ahead of us.  For Krznaric this inclusive, long-term view opens up a source for deep hope. In an interview with evolve he says:   “I often draw a distinction between optimism and hope. Optimism is the idea that everything's going to be okay in spite of the evidence. I'm not optimistic about the prospects for our species, we are going in utterly the wrong direction. But I'm hopeful in the sense of being committed to the vision and the values that you have, even when the odds are against you. We may well be able to not have our civilizations break, but rather bend, in the face of all the challenges that we face. And this requires a huge sort of shift of consciousness in terms of our relationship to time and the living world. But the question is, can we do it at the speed and scale required, given that we might be going over and already have gone over tipping points? And anybody who's working in the realm of deep ideas will point out that cultural evolution has rarely been fast.”   In Radio evolve we speak with Roman Krznaric about the deep transformation of consciousness and identity that opens up in a much wider, inclusive relationship to time.     More on Roman Krznaric: www.romankrznaric.com www.dumont-buchverlag.de/personen/roman-krznaric-p-2900 Unser Radio evolve Archiv mit über 600 Sendungen: www.evolve-world.org/radio-evolve www.youtube.com/@radioevolve7543

    Coming Home to Our One Earth - Unleashing the Creative Wisdom of our many Cultures

    Mike Kauschke in Dialogue with Rama Mani & Alexander Schieffer Thursday, 4. December, 8 pm CET   More than 20 years ago, social activist and artist Dr. Rama Mani and leadership development expert Prof. Alexander Schieffer, founded the organization “Home for Humanity”. They brought students and change-makers from all over the world to their home in France to facilitate transformational learning journeys that unleash the unique creative potential of every person to contribute towards peace, sustainability, unity and wisdom. Based on that experience and the many connections Rama and Alexander forged during that time, they now embarked on a Global Journey, which they call “Our One Home Journey 2024-2030 – 7 Years for 7 Generations”. The seven-year journey began in April 2024 and completed its first year in the summer of 2025. It reached over 11.000 people in 20 countries on five continents: Egypt, Bhutan, Zimbabwe, South Africa, Lesotho, Tanzania, Uganda, Kenya, Sri Lanka, India, Nepal, New Zealand/Aotearoa, Australia, Japan, Mexico, Brazil, the USA, Morocco, Turkey, and France. Rama and Alexander traveled “from home to home,” supporting transformative initiatives, connecting change makers, and accompanying future builders on their journey toward committed Earth citizenship. At each stop, they lived in the homes and organizations of local partners, shared their daily lives, learned from the communities, and supported them—from urban slums to Indigenous villages, from refugee camps to ecovillages, from universities to businesses. For this work of bringing people together, Alexander and Rama recently have been awarded with the Gusi Peace Prize. In this session of Radio evolve Rama and Alexander shared the depth of their vision and the integral approach they are developing that sees beauty, wisdom and creative potential in every individual and in every culture, which can be unleashed for a sustainable, peaceful and wise global community on our home planet Earth.
