The Role of SAGES in the Beloved Community

Ya'll get to meet Julia's parents today! On this episode of The In Between, Julia talks to Grace & Jeff Silliman (otherwise known as Julia's mum and dad). They talk about their own faith mentors, intergenerational faith, the joys and challenges of being a sage in the church, and what it means to develop intergenerational communities where we all learn from and enjoy one another. Pass this episode along to a sage you know, or maybe consider taking a step toward cultivating intergenerational friendships in your own life. As Pope Francis reminded us: "Young people bud and foliage, but without roots they cannot bear fruit. The elderly are the roots.” A tree can grow tall, but without deep roots, it'll blow over in the first strong wind that comes by. So let's grow together: EVERY generation for FUTURE generations.
