What Does Play Have To Do With It? w/ Midge Noble

GAY with GOD!

Complimentary Session w/ Midge

52:22

Season 3 of the smash hit FX/Hulu show “The Bear” roared to life just days ago, but Will Poulter (the actor who plays fan-favorite Luca) and 2014 F&W Best New Chef Dave Beran had been prepping for weeks. Poulter — like his co-star Jeremy Allen White — staged with Beran at his Santa Monica restaurant Pasjoli to learn how to accurately portray a professional chef onscreen. The lessons went so well, Beran says he’d hire Poulter as a cook — even despite a messy mishap with a pastry bag. The two dished all about getting kitchen culture right on and offscreen, what it takes to be at the top of your craft, and the pure magic of a great restaurant service.

Midge specializes in helping her LGBTQIA+ community in their coming out and faith journeys. Her main focus is to stop gay suicides by educating people wounded by the church that they can be in relationship with the God of their understanding and that God does and has always loved us, just as we are created to be. To that end, Midge is very involved in her parish, The Episcopal Church of the Good Shepherd. Midge and her wife, along with their fur babies, enjoy spending time at their mountain cabin, hiking, and being with their friends.

In today's episode I talk about how play is a key element in our ability to resist negativity and the chaos in the world we find ourselves in. We will look at ways to cope and still resist. A shout out to all our ancestors and Saints who suffered, survived, and still taught us how to have a joy within that cannot be extinguished.

Fran Leeman is the founding pastor of LifeSpring Church in Plainfield, Illinois. Along with his wife, Linda, and a few good friends, he has led this church for over 30 years. Fran is also the founder of New Life for Haiti. Fran's book, The Everybody Gospel , chronicles his journey from a conservative evangelical mindset to embracing a bigger and more beautiful God, a richer understanding of the gospel, and those in the LGBTQ community. In today's episode we go deeper into the journey of Pastor Fran and the congregation of LifeSpring Church as they thoughtfully and prayerfully dug deep into the clobber verses in the Bible to see Jesus in those sacred scriptures that seemed to exclude the LGBTG community. Pastor Fran's book, The Everybody Gospel is an account of their brave journey to step out of what they had been taught and allow the Holy Spirit to speak through the scriptures resulting in choosing inclusion of all God's children into their church.

Her main focus is to stop gay suicides by educating people wounded by the church that they can be in relationship with the God of their understanding and that God does and has always loved us, just as we are created to be. To that end, Midge is very involved in her parish, The Episcopal Church of the Good Shepherd. Midge and her wife, along with their fur babies, enjoy spending time at their mountain cabin, hiking, and being with their friends. In today's episode we stand boldly in community to dispel the darkness that surrounds us. I focus on how the light of Dr. Martin Luther King is on this very day on Jan. 20th and just like him and Baryard Rustin, we can stand in the light even with overwhelming darkness around us. We have the power to keep our inner light burning through this moment in history....because when this moment is over.... we will still be standing.
