S3E10: Practicing For Heaven: A People of Beauty

What happens when we faithfully practice dwelling, gazing and inquiring within the confessional community—within the house of the Lord? As it turns out, nothing short of the emergence of beauty and goodness within the community itself, the very place where the hard work of hope is done.

Goodness and beauty that then spills out into every other domain of life that the members of the community occupy. Furthermore, the very hard work that happens in the community—unlike Las Vegas—does not stay in the community, but extends through the lives of the participants to become the artistry of new creation wherever their footfalls land, be be that in their family, their place and form of occupation, their friendships and their churches.

Join Pepper and Curt to find out what glimpsing into heaven might be like—God’s heaven that is already here and is surely coming.

This episode is further discussion on chapter 10 of The Soul of Desire by Curt Thompson, MD.

Part of that redemptive process includes our telling the story of trauma as truly as we can—so that evil doesn’t get to have the last word.

Each episode in this season will relate to an area of trauma, including:
