ОТНОСТНО ТОЗИ ЕПИЗОД
Have you ever wished there were a simple formula for knowing when it's time to move on, especially after your community makes a decision you wouldn't have chosen?
Sometimes the hardest decisions aren't about starting something new — they're about what to do after a decision has already been made. Maybe your church changed direction. Maybe your organization chose a path you wouldn't have chosen. Now you're left holding the question: Do I stay, or is it time to go?
In this episode, Tanner Smith, Chase Rashad Stancle, and Sarah Johnson explore what faithful discernment looks like when you find yourself out of step with your community. Drawing on personal stories, leadership experiences, and practices from the Christian tradition, they talk about how to slow down, notice what's happening inside you, and discern your next step without rushing toward relief or avoiding the question altogether.
In this episode, you'll hear:-
Why the deeper question isn't just "Should I stay or go?" but who you're becoming as you discern
-
How to tell the difference between healthy discomfort, anxiety, and harm
-
Practical ways to discern your next step — including the "sandbox week" practice and taking small, reversible actions
-
Discernment by Henri Nouwen
-
Ignatian practice of the Examen (consolation and desolation)
