A note on this episode from Tara...
"In honor of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Day, this weeks episode of Holy Shenanigans Podcast focuses on the power of encouragement and creativity; in efforts to do a new thing. King said this about creativity… “Not ordinarily do men (people) achieve this balance of opposites…But life at its best is a creative synthesis of opposites in fruitful harmony.”
Have you experienced creativity and encouragement as tools to foster new ideas? What happened? "
In grace and good trouble,
Tara
