    The Joys & Struggles of Seeing Our Disabilities as a Gift

    Navigating life with a disability presents profound challenges, often catching us off guard. We all tend to take our health for granted—until it’s gone. Then, it’s all too easy to obsess over what we’ve lost. But while we can’t wish away our limitations, we can change the way we think about our disabilities. Join us as we reflect on our growing awareness of our respective disabilities and what it means for our lives, especially for Ken as he makes some changes in life such as stepping back from the Rumors of Doing Good podcast due to recent health setbacks.  Through our conversation we come to the realization how our disabilities have shaped who we are and the unique gift we have to share with the world.

    Eric Knox - Mentoring Students of Color & Why It Matters

    In today’s conversation, I’m joined by my friend Eric Knox from Portland Oregon USA.

    Ray Motsi - Fostering Nonviolence Across Zimbabwe’s Tribes

    In today's conversation, I'm joined by Ray Motsi from Bulawayo, Zimbabwe. Zimbabwe has a complex history, marked by significant violence stemming from the colonial rule of the British Empire and the subsequent fight for independence in the 1960s through the 80s. This history has deeply influenced the culture, where violence often became the preferred means of resolving conflict. The 1980s saw the continuation of this violence, with the government using brutal methods to suppress opposition. Amidst this culture of violence, Ray co-founded Grace to Heal in 2003, with the mission of helping people process trauma and fostering peace, reconciliation, justice, and conflict transformation in Zimbabwe. I hope you enjoy this fascinating conversation with Ray as he shares his journey of standing alongside his people as a peacemaker.
