Your Holiday (Spiritual) Gift Guide
Manage episode 371651125 series 3494793
Every holiday season brings tidings of great joy and shiny toys for the girls and boys (and people) who celebrate whatever holidays. For evangelical kids, the gifts kept giving all year long, because ours were…spiritual.
Join Lindsay, Meg, and Sarai as they troll through their past and reanimate their spiritual ghosts, we mean gifts. Remember words normals never use (exhortation, anyone??), join us as we talk through the controversy surrounding tongues (with and without interpretation, nerds), and rediscover one key gift all three of us share: Discernment. (We will wait for your collective gasp!)
Ever wonder what spiritual gifts were all about? Even if you don’t believe the stuff you were raised with, what can we do with this information? Turns out Discernment is a pretty rad signifier of having intuition and listening to it. And, the gift of Administration leads a kid to just absolutely love paperwork and be the boss-betch of the world. And of course, Hospitality makes all potlucks possible - and science says nobody can survive without being forced to eat room temperature green bean casserole at least once. Plus! Bonus: Stay tuned next week for a special release (Our Spiritual Gift to you, dear Ghostie), as we release behind the scenes content of the three of us middle aged mom friends reconstructing our top five spiritual gifts, and deconstructing the leftover shreds of pain and shame and doubt and turning them to wailing laughter and hopefully, something useful we can all still take from our experience. Yay! It’s fun! It’s gifts!
