436: At Home in the Holy

A conversation which begins with a beautiful and stirring song from MaMuse [a link to the song is in the show-notes]. How might we imagine light inside darkness, and call to the light in ourselves and in one another, even as we feel grief and worry and sadness? And how might we bring our imaginative capacities to invite one another into relationships of mutual care, for each other and for the world, especially in a time which often wants to teach us to fear one another instead?In our conversation we talk specifically about Turning Towards Life - Live - Season 2, which begins in March 2026.This week's Turning Towards Life is hosted as always by Lizzie Winn and Justin Wise of Thirdspace.Episode Overview00:00 Introduction to Intentional Practice02:56 Exploring the Source: 'I Am Home in the Holy'05:52 The Power of Mutual Care09:05 The Invitation of Community11:46 Navigating Grief and Tenderness14:51 The Role of Language in Connection18:02 Cultivating Joy and Playfulness20:55 The Ground Holding Us23:46 The Importance of Togetherness27:08 Closing Reflections and InvitationsThis is Turning Towards Life, a weekly live 30 minute conversation hosted by Thirdspace in which Justin Wise and Lizzie Winn dive deep into big questions of human living.
