LA PARTICIPACIÓN DE LOS ABUELOS

Alguien vino a buscarme

La pastora Marcey Brannon dirige la Iglesia de Dios de la Profecía en Crab Orchard, Tenesí. Crab Orchard tiene un legado sólido en las misiones —domésticas y foráneas. Recientemente tuve la oportunidad de entrevistar a la pastora Brannon y hablar sobre las muchas maneras en que su iglesia está alcanzando a su comunidad local. Además de los ministerios que tiene, esta iglesia recauda miles de dólares anualmente para las misiones a través de ventas de garaje; distribuyen cajas de comida durante los días festivos; bendicen a las familias de bajos ingresos con regalos de Navidad; y una vez al mes sirven en un refugio local para los desamparados.

Personal Accountability in Chaos - AN INTERVIEW WITH JAMES HOLLIS, PhD

“Central to the agenda of the second half of life is the recovery of permission to really own your own life: to truly feel what you feel, desire what you desire, and to pursue whatever your soul wants you to pursue. For most people, that permission is still very conditional and very remote, and you can’t get it from someone else. It takes a realization: I have to seize my life because it is short—and I’m here to place my energies where my values really are. The current crisis presents an enormous opportunity for encountering oneself and granting that permission—if we can bear it.”
