The Mystic by Church Health

Produced by Church Health, “The Mystic” features Joshua Henry Narcisse, Dr. Scott Morris, Micah Greenstein, Kirk Whalum and Joy Gilmer Marseille, as they share music, conversation and matters of the spirit. In The Mystic, the world is far better served by different beliefs than it could ever be if limited by rigid uniformity. And if this doesn’t rock your gypsy soul, the goal of The Mystic is to not feel better but get better at feeling.

    S1E41: "The Power and Problem of Nostalgia"

    We begin by reflecting on:  When do you find yourself feeling most nostalgic these days.  Where/when does your nostalgia take you?   What are some of the feelings and sensations that accompany that experience.   How does nostalgia help you as a pastor/leader?  How does it hinder you?  Are the laments of the declining mainline church just pining for the "good ol' days" or is there something else within that experience that can be a pathway for renewed relevancy for organied religion in this present moment.   Within this initial conversation we explore the power of nostalgia in public, such as the recent influx of advertising pulling on themes from the 90s and early 2000s, the increase in popularity of more analog technologies like vinyl and Polaroids, as well as the political nostalgia behind the claims of MAGA on one end and a "return to normalcy" on the other end.   As religious leaders that are tasked with helping folks navigate change institutionally and in the world:

    S1E40: “A Kindly Look” The Oversized Importance of Greetings

    A Kindly Look — there is power in a glance. Try to recall one good and one bad experience you’ve had when a stranger “looked at you a certain way.”  I see you.  The importance of a look or greeting to the deeper spiritual work — even “evangelical work” — of folks who desire to represent (and perhaps manifest) the Divine.  The difference between men’s & women’s public bathroom etiquette!  Are there any significant underlying reasons for these differences?

    S1E39: Age Ain’t Nothing but a Number

    We’ve been talking a lot about age in this country in the midst of this election year and ageism is one of this least talked about forms of discrimination.  What are your thoughts on age – both how you were brought up to think about age, and also how you think about age now at this moment in your life? What have you noticed about the public discourse about age recently? In sacred texts, someone living a very long time is often seen as receiving favor from God. Since we know that not everyone gets to grow old, what meaning do you ascribe to living to a “ripe, old age.”

    S1E35: Self-Absorption, Self-Awareness, and Our Shared Life Together

    Are people more self-absorbed these days? Has the proliferation of social media, polarization, and the decline of traditional religious affiliation made it easier for people to be more self-absorbed and less interested in the possibilities and demands of sharing in community? What about self-awareness?  How can the cultivation of self-awareness help us address what seems like a self-absorption epidemic.    During the first half of the discussion, we reflect on the above questions and try to get a handle on what it’s like to pastor, live, and have faith in a seemingly more self-absorbed world. The second half of the discussion will focus on exploring our journey to deepening self-awareness and how that practice can offer us a way out of the collective naval gazing.
