What Is Mine To Do?
An Interspiritual Approach to Political Engagement
A Day Workshop Live on Zoom
Oct. 26, 2024 · 9:30am-5:30pm ET
As spiritual people, we should not avoid the political realities that harm us and those we love. We can no longer use our spirituality to numb ourselves from feeling the real pain of oppression, nor can we use our spirituality to justify turning away from our responsibility to one another. Each of us is valuable and necessary to co-create the world we want, and each of us may have a different role to play. The question then becomes: “what is mine to do?”
Some people seek to force their theology into politics, while others believe that the right way to handle politics and spirituality is to keep them separate. Both of these perspectives perpetuate systems of inequity. If we truly belong to ourselves and to each other, we need to find a radical, spiritually grounded way to participate in the democratic process. In this workshop, participants will delve deeply into an embodied experience of our interconnection and interdependence.
Register for this one-day workshop to practice identifying and claiming your uniqueness, listening to one another’s stories, working with emotional activation. and discerning opportunities for action.
Following this workshop, you’ll be ready to answer the question “what is mine to do?” with a holistic plan for taking action.
