Ep 7: Death by a Thousand Cuts [Jake Hall‪]‬ Beyond Religion

    • Spirituality

My friend, my colleague, my brother: the Rev. Dr. Jake Hall. We've known each other for over 25 years, and that's enough time in life to say we've been through some stuff. Make some space this week for the full episode as Jake talks about a post-church life he never expected. It's raw, it's vulnerable, it's truth-telling, and I am honored to be a friend who can share this story in the light.

You can hear more from Jake each Sunday morning at 9:30 a.m. eastern on 101.9 The Creek. Gospel Gothic explores faith through the preachers, writers, and musicians that have shaped the Southern lexicon and imagination. Explore the crossroads of faith, music, and meaning in the Christ-haunted South with host Jake Hall Sundays at 9:30am on 100.9 The Creek: https://thecreekfm.com/show/gospel-gothic/

The Wendell Berry quote comes from this brilliant poem:

How to Be a Poet (to remind myself)

i   Make a place to sit down.   Sit down. Be quiet.   You must depend upon   affection, reading, knowledge,   skill—more of each   than you have—inspiration,   work, growing older, patience,   for patience joins time   to eternity. Any readers   who like your poems,   doubt their judgment.   ii   Breathe with unconditional breath   the unconditioned air.   Shun electric wire.   Communicate slowly. Live   a three-dimensioned life;   stay away from screens.   Stay away from anything   that obscures the place it is in.   There are no unsacred places;   there are only sacred places   and desecrated places.   iii   Accept what comes from silence.   Make the best you can of it.   Of the little words that come   out of the silence, like prayers   prayed back to the one who prays,   make a poem that does not disturb   the silence from which it came.
