undefined - An Unconventional Path to Episcopal Priest

An Unconventional Path to Episcopal Priest

This week, Sarah Smith joins Leslie to talk about her journey from Air Force brat to becoming an Episcopal Priest at St Andrew’s On-the-Sound in Wilmington, North Carolina --- via an unconventional route.

Sarah’s journey includes a personally described moral crisis, which called on her to evaluate her core values as a young 20-year old. From there, you’ll hear Sarah share a series of life experiences, twists and turns that climaxed in her coined “quarterly life crisis,” which led her to Christian Education and the Ministry.

I came away from our conversation with an even deeper respect for Sarah on many levels, especially her abundance of confidence and humility. She has an enviable balance of self-respect and respect for others.

Just some of the topics from our thought-provoking conversation include:

• No one is one dimensional, and our skill-set is not always our vocation
• Sarah’s personal values of accountability, responsibility, & gratitude
• Our weaknesses are our strengths misused
• How our values and behaviors are interrelated
• Embracing what is a perceived failure as a growth opportunity
• Strengthening leadership skills to include leading through change
• And much more

We close our conversation by discussing how this year has been a uniquely humanizing experience. Behind every topic we as a society classify as an issue are people, human beings with real wants and needs. Sarah and I are like-minded in that we both hope this is a reckoning we all can remember and carry forward as we get through the year that is 2020 together.
