ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Neighborhoods are sacred places when we treat them as such. They are the spaces where we'll both experience and bring about the kingdom of heaven most prominently. Neighborhood are sacred and the Commons are the glue that hold neighborhoods together. The commons are all the spaces where local community come together. They can be rooting together at a local football game, or coming to the park for local music, or showing up in common areas to hold a vigil, protest something unjust, etc. The commons are where we are our most human selves, and yet, they are more and more neglected. Today's episode is about reclaiming the Commons of our neighborhoods, to remember the spaces where the kingdom shows up.
