Poet, Pastor, and Peacemaker, Drew Jackson joins us to talk about his forthcoming book “God Speaks Through Wombs”. We also discuss his roles as a poet, a pastor, and a peacemaker. And, we dive deep into reclaiming scripture for the marginalized, the importance of recognizing what it means to move through this world in a Black body, and practical thoughts on honoring the process of noticing and being aware.

Jeff Tcatch is the Chief Impact Officer for the Rodale Institute and is responsible for expanding Rodale Institute's global influence in healing people and the planet by unlocking the transformational power of regenerative organic agriculture. In today’s episode, we chat about changing the planet through changing our relationship with soil. We also discuss what agriculture has to do with human rights, and how we can begin to embrace this new/old way of producing food that is in harmony with nature. Spoiler alert: it changes everything!

Elizabeth tells Rachael about the deeper meaning behind the margins in her monthly word art. We needed a margin episode before we jumped right back into our interview episodes, so we used this episode to create some margins of our own.
In this week's mini-episode, Elizabeth shares more about her monthly ritual of using markers and paper to reflect on her plans, hopes, priorities and touchstones for the month ahead. Here are several examples of the pieces she's created, including the very first one that set this practice in motion . . . and just might be responsible for the inception of Everyday Thin Places!
Happy Last Week of 2020! Next week is 2021 (?!?!?!?!?!) and we’re celebrating by looking back on 2020 and looking forward to 2021!
