The Way of Love with Bishop Michael Curry
Religion & Spirituality:Christianity
When we worship, we gather with others before God. We hear the Good News of Jesus Christ, give thanks, confess, and offer the brokenness of the world to God. So many of our worship experiences take place within a church building - it can be hard to imagine worship without candles and stained glass and pews - but there are many ways we can bring worship out into the wider world, knowing that God is out there, too. In this episode, Bishop Michael Curry and hosts Kyle and Sandy discuss worshiping on the Way of Love: Gathering in community weekly to thank, praise, and dwell with God. Bishop Curry reflects on how we can show God’s love boldly in our communities while also being respectful of neighbors who believe differently.
We also hear from Hugo Olaiz, associate editor of Latino-Hispanic resources for Forward Movement. Hugo tells us about a worship experience that by definition occurs beyond the church walls: Las Posadas. He explains his own practices of Las Posadas and reflects on the witness this tradition makes possible: witness to the importance of hospitality, of community, and of the story of the Holy Family.
