On Making: Awareness, Abundance, and Art with Makoto Fujimura 1:07:39

4 years之前1:07:39

1:07:39

World-renowned artist Makoto Fujimura, author of “ Art + Faith: A Theology of Making ,” draws from his deep well of reflections on creativity and the spiritual aspects of “making” in this poetic, inviting conversation with Jenn Giles Kemper. Experienced in the Japanese art of Kintsugi (mending broken ceramic with lacquer and gold to create something new) Makoto (Mako) talks with Jenn about what he’s learned about the very nature of our Maker God through this process of being “not only restored, but made new.” On this episode of Sacred Ordinary Days with Jenn Giles Kemper, Mako explores: Why art is an outpouring of God’s grace How the trauma of living near Ground Zero on Sept, 11, 2001 has been reflected in all of our lives during the 2020-21 global pandemic The generativity of humanity How art asks more questions than it answers His journey in Christ through different denominations and traditions How art is a gift but not a commodity, and how that reflects God’s grace About the guest: Makoto Fujimura, an artist, arts advocate, writer, and speaker, is the founder of the International Arts Movement and the Fujimura Institute, and co-founder of the Kintsugi Academy. He lives in Princeton, New Jersey and is a leading contemporary artist whose “slow art” has been described by David Brooks of the New York Times as “a small rebellion against the quickening of time”. Mako’s art has been featured widely in galleries and museums around the world, and is collected by notable collections including The Museum of Contemporary Art in Tokyo, The Huntington Library, and the Tikotin Museum in Israel. He is one of the first artists to paint live on stage at New York City’s legendary Carnegie Hall as part of an ongoing collaboration with composer and percussionist, Susie Ibarra. We’re proud to carry his books Culture Care and Art + Faith in our spiritual formation bookshop. Reflection point: In Art + Faith, Mako writes that “To be effective messengers of hope we must trust our inner voice, our intuition that speaks into the vast wastelands of our time.” When is a time you have not trusted your inner voice? What was at stake? And in the episode, Jenn mentions that Mako says that the book of Psalms, God’s poetry, gives us an ecosystem of metaphors and a garden of words to describe the thriving offered to us in the New Creation. What would it look like for you to spend some time in a Psalm this week? What might God have to tell you through the Psalm you read, as it relates to new creation?

Prayer for the Brokenhearted 11:05

4 years之前11:05

11:05

What becomes of the brokenhearted? Pandemic-tide rages on. Our hearts are battered and bruised. Some of us have lost jobs. Others of us have lost loved ones. We wonder when we will get to share meals with neighbors again and worship together like we used to. We wonder if—and when—racial and economic injustices will be restored, redeemed, and reconciled. We ache for healing to come in our communities and families, in our churches and our very souls. Throughout these six weeks of prayer, we hope to have offered a soft place to land, a tiny reprieve to help you feel a little less alone. We’ve prayed for our overwhelm and our loneliness , for our fears and our exhaustion , for our hopes , and now, our sorrows. Producer and writer Kayla Craig is our guide in this final episode of this six-week series on prayer.

Each week, you’ll receive: A personal prayer written for you by our Sacred Ordinary Days team Scripture to meditate on An audio prayer to stream from our podcast Quotes and featured liturgies from a diverse group of Christian writers Tools for your prayer practice Reflection points for the journey To meditate on: The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. // Psalm 34:18 (NLT) He heals the brokenhearted, and binds up their wounds. He determines the number of the stars; he gives to all of them their names. // Psalm 147:3-4 (NRSV) All praise to the God and Father of our Master, Jesus the Messiah! Father of all mercy! God of all healing counsel! He comes alongside us when we go through hard times, and before you know it, he brings us alongside someone else who is going through hard times so that we can be there for that person just as God was there for us. We have plenty of hard times that come from following the Messiah, but no more so than the good times of his healing comfort—we get a full measure of that, too. // 2 Corinthians 1:3-4 (The Message) To reflect on: What is most heavy on your heart today? What might that say about your hopes and values? How might God be inviting you to walk alongside someone else as they grieve? What does it tangibly look like to weep with those who weep?…

Prayer for the Fearful 13:47

Naming our fears doesn’t make us weak—it makes us brave. Join us as we pray for the fears that so easily entangle us. How do we discern when our fear is our God-given intuition, protecting us? And how do we discern when it’s a lie taking root in our hearts, wrapping around us like a weed to prevent us from walking the path of love God intends for us? In this fourth week of Sacred Ordinary Days communal prayer, Kayla Craig , liturgist-in-residence and podcast producer at Sacred Ordinary Days, hosts this time of reflection and prayer to help you on your journey of becoming more wholly human, more fully faithful.

But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love. We love because he first loved us. // 1 John 4:18-19 (NIV) God is love. When we take up permanent residence in a life of love, we live in God and God lives in us. This way, love has the run of the house, becomes at home and mature in us, so that we’re free of worry on Judgment Day—our standing in the world is identical with Christ’s. There is no room in love for fear. Well-formed love banishes fear. Since fear is crippling, a fearful life—fear of death, fear of judgment—is one not yet fully formed in love. We, though, are going to love—love and be loved. First we were loved, now we love. He loved us first. // 1 John 4:18-19 (The Message) To reflect on: What is one fear you have been holding onto this week? What might naming that fear have to teach you?…

Prayer for the Exhausted 13:45

4 years之前13:45

13:45

Beloved, when was the last time you rested? Like, truly shut everything down and simply...breathed? Sabbath can often feel like an admirable—but unrealistic—sentiment for our very full, very ordinary lives of taking out the trash, meeting the work deadlines, and scrambling to make (or order in) dinner. You’re a parent? Your kids need you. You’re on-call? Your workplace needs you. The list goes on, and if we're being honest, rest is often elusive to us. If not me, who? If not now, when? We hold these questions close to our chests, white-knuckling our way through another day. It’s noble, maybe. But it’s also misguided. In this third week of communal prayer, we’re praying for restoration and renewal over our weary bodies, minds, and souls. Kayla Craig , liturgist-in-residence and podcast producer at Sacred Ordinary Days, hosts this time of reflection and prayer. We also hear an excerpt written by Cole Arthur Riley of @blackliturgies . P.S. Did you miss last week’s prayer for the lonely ? You can find it here .

Prayer for the Lonely 9:23

4 years之前9:23

9:23

Join us in our second week of prayer as we pray for the lonely. And really, when we’re doing that? We’re praying for all of us. In our human limitation, it’s difficult to fathom that the God of all things does not leave or forsake us, even in the moments we feel most desperately alone. Maybe you’ve felt misunderstood and all alone as you reflect on the church tradition you grew up in. Maybe you’ve felt politically lonely. Emotionally misunderstood. Spiritually isolated. Professionally adrift. Loneliness takes many forms, but at its core, it’s one of the most universal human experiences. (Ironic, isn’t it, that we so easily believe no one else could possibly understand?) In this bonus episode, Sacred Ordinary Days producer and liturgist Kayla Craig reads a small meditation, some scripture, a prayer from a Celtic prayer book, and a new prayer for the lonely she has written for our community of kindreds. P.S. Did you miss last week’s prayer for the overwhelmed ? You can find it here . We invite you to join us for companionship and guidance as we seek to meet God in new ways with humility, grace, and mercy.

A Communal Call for Prayer: Prayer for the Overwhelmed 10:48

4 years之前10:48

10:48

For the next six weeks, we’re inviting you into an intentional time of prayer with a series of bonus episodes. No perfect words or serene locales necessary. We’re praying from our glorious, unglamorous ordinary spaces — and in doing so — accepting the invitation to waltz with the Maker who delights in our very being. We’re still working on podcast interviews, but we believe this time of prayer together is so important that for the next six weeks, you’ll find audio versions of the prayers on our podcast to ensure these messages are accessible, even if the only way you can pray is with a little gentle guided listening when the news-cycle feels overwhelming. We’re writing prayers from our spaghetti-sauce splattered kitchen tables. We’re writing prayers (seeking to be) aware of our baggage and our blind spots. We’re writing with our wholly human hearts, because, well, we can’t not. We'll also point to and celebrate prayers from voices from marginalized and minimized communities. Are you as wrung-out as we are? Would you like to join us for six weeks of prayer? We invite you to join us for companionship and guidance as we seek to meet God in new ways with humility, grace, and mercy. Our time together will lead us right up to Ash Wednesday with a posture of reflection and hope in Christ. May this time together transform us to be more wholly human, more fully faithful.

Listen to the unedited conversation between Tsh Oxenreider and Jenn Giles Kemper, available now! On Thursdays following a newly-released interview episode, we’re releasing the long-form conversation. We hope it feels like you are sitting in a chair at the table with us. As we were producing our latest episode, On Journeying: Travel, Traditions, and Turning to the Psalms with Tsh Oxenreider , we realized something: There’s SO much that falls on the cutting room floor. As you’ll hear in this conversation with Tsh, she and Jenn both dove much deeper into Tsh’s cross-cultural living experiences, her work as a guide on Literary London trips, and her discernment process as she has walked unexpected paths in her vocation. You’ll hear more of what made Tsh feel lost at sea on her faith journey — and how the liturgical year brought her back to God in new ways. Jenn and Tsh talk about mental health, explore Advent and Christmastide in new and ancient ways, and Tsh reveals some personal insight into her decision to close her popular blog at the end of 2020. For the shorter, produced version with narration from Jenn: Listen to On Journeying: Travel, Traditions, and Turning to the Psalms with Tsh Oxenreider . In that episode, we pull the threads of what it is to embrace the shadow and light of the advent season, and Jenn offers a prayer and a reflection question, too.

On Journeying: Travel, Traditions, and Turning to the Psalms with Tsh Oxenreider 43:18

4 years之前43:18

43:18

Writer and travel guide Tsh Oxenreider joins host Jenn to talk about journeying through shadow and light during Advent — and using the Psalms to map the way. Tsh shares about navigating different faith traditions and forging a new path for herself — a path that, as it turns out, has been well-tread by centuries of Christians before her. Tsh and Jenn discuss spiritual pilgrimages, finding meaning from cultures outside their own, and sifting out gifts and graces in the Psalms. They also dive into book recommendations and their favorite seasonal songs, and Tsh reads an excerpt from her new book, Shadow & Light . About the guest: Tsh Oxenreider is the bestselling author of several books, most recently Shadow & Light , a guide for the Advent season using Psalms as a prayer book, and At Home in the World , the story about her family’s year traveling around the world out of backpacks. Why now: Popular culture would have us believe that the 12 Days of Christmas are simply a countdown calendar to December 25. But as Tsh points out, that’s not how the Christian calendar works. We celebrate Advent, and then Christmastide, with its 12 days of celebration stretching to January 5. Depending on your tradition or denomination, you may be wondering...if I’m holding back on Christmas traditions...what does that leave me with for Advent ? Jenn and Tsh discuss. Reflection point: How might more fully engaging in Advent as a season of preparation for Christmas allow us to lengthen your celebration of Christmas itself? As Jenn explores in this episode, perhaps in your answer, there’s a clue as to something you might do right now to go a bit deeper next Advent, too.

Listen to the unedited conversation between Scott Erickson and Jenn Giles Kemper, available now! On Thursdays following a newly-released interview episode, we’re releasing the long-form conversation. We hope it feels like you are sitting in a chair at the table with us. As we were producing our episode of Sacred Ordinary Days with Jenn Giles Kemper with Scott, we realized something: There’s SO much that falls on the cutting room floor. As you’ll hear in this conversation with Scott, he and Jenn both dove much deeper into the exact places where vulnerability touches vocation, creativity, family life, and spiritual leadership. You’ll hear more of his fun, funny, provocative nature come out -- including when Jenn accidentally prompted him to tell a vasectomy story. They talk about their families by name, prayer lives, evolving work as spiritual directors, the enneagram, making art, embarrassing moments, and how leaders (especially those in the Church) need to be living out what they’re teaching in private, personal ways...or as Scott succinctly says “smoking what you’re selling.” For the shorter, produced version with narration from Jenn: Listen to On Vulnerability: Prayer, Art, and Parenthood with Scott Erickson . In that episode, we pull the treads of what it is to embrace vulnerability, and Jenn offers a prayer and a reflection question, too.

Artist and storyteller Scott Erickson joins host Jenn Giles Kemper to explore vulnerability through prayer, creativity, and parenthood. Jenn brings her natural curiosity and her experiences as a spiritual director to the chat, inviting listeners to ponder their own vulnerabilities in this season of Advent. Throughout the episode, Scott and Jenn explore rekindling the wonder of God-with-Us . Scott shares about the “hauntings” he feels in his vocation and Jenn reveals which recent life experiences have been highlighting her own vulnerabilities at Sacred Ordinary Days -- and in her personal life, too. About the guest: Scott Erickson is a featured author in the Sacred Ordinary Days spiritual formation book shop, and his quirky, thoughtful words and art on prayer have been a favorite for our team and customers this year. (We’re thrilled to have added Scott’s newly released book, Honest Advent , to the shop, too.) Why now: In the Christian season of Advent, we remember the centuries the people of God waited for the l ong-prophesied Messiah, who eventually arrived through the birth of Jesus. The word Advent , in fact, means “ coming ” or “ arrival .” It marks the beginning of the liturgical year because it is where the story begins . Reflection point: How are you going to embrace something or someone that makes you feel exposed and vulnerable this week?
