Today, I invite you to spend some time in silent consideration. Imagine me sitting with you and asking the following questions. Allow the time to turn into an internal conversation with me. I think this works best as a journalling exercise.
When you have a voice, you have power over your life. You are free to become who you are meant to become. How have you been silenced in the past? What circumstances or structures prevent your becoming?
Who do you know personally who has been silenced and lost their power? How have they been silenced? What forces are at play?
When you look at history, what groups of people have been silenced? What are some of the ways others became their voice for them to give them back their power?
Peace, Bo

My mission is to promote the progressive Christian voice in the spiritual/theological marketplace. I hope that by doing so I will help make the world a more loving place one newsletter at a time.
