Unknowing

It will all make sense, even when you don’t want it to, and will make you realize you aren’t the only one wrestling these questions and challenges, but that there are so many ways to face the whole of life.

Brie is a compassionate, relentless voice in the no man’s land of post-Christian-but-still-kind-of-Christian-but-really-also-not spiritual exploration. I look forward to each episode like I look forward to my morning cup of tea: though the flavors change, the conversations are always warm and heartening, enlivening listeners like me with courage. Brie and her guests hold space for a community of seekers willing to redefine ideas once believed to be static. Brie is the perfect person to shepherd these conversations and I for one am extremely grateful to her for taking the leap and dedicating her talents and passions to bringing these conversations to life.

This season is blowing the mind of this mid-age, white, male, takes my privelage for granted, blue collar, middle class, dime store psycologist, 5 on the Enneagram and religious mongrel. Despite all the rationalizing, deflecting and scape goating; deep down we males know what this power struggle in America is all about. Defending our power!! Period!! Now Brie and her brillant guests have followed the roots of it back to Rome, Christianity and beyond. I honer the courage of these people for exposing the historical truth and yet, to do it in a way that is anti-confrontational. Interesting how the vibe of truth can hold the ultimate power without any aggression whatsoever. Perhaps that will be the gift the divine female can teach us when we finally accept her into our being.

Brie brings us into a wild space and serves as a guide to unknowing in a deeply liberating way. Her willingness to ask scary questions first gives us all permission to do the same and it’s so empowering to journey with someone that honest and free. So grateful for this podcast!
