Our experiences are not something to invalidate or ignore, they’re a gift that shapes how we view the world. Today, lead pastor Josh Scott begins a new series on spiritual practices for progressive Christians. He reminds us that the Bible is full of people who changed their minds based on experiences, even if that experience contradicted the things they’d previously been told. He also explains how spiritual practices can help us keep our hearts open and soft by inviting us to pay attention to the divine.
Episode Recap:
- All of life has rhythm to it (0:56)
- Spiritual practice is about opening and softening the heart (5:34)
- We tend to ask too much of the Bible (8:17)
- You can trust your experience (13:14)
- The Bible is full of people who changed their minds based on experience (22:05)
- If your faith is making you worse, maybe you should let go of it (28:14)
- Experience is an invitation to pay attention (35:04)
- Most of our lives are spent in ordinary time, and the divine can still show up there (41:10)
