Lament & Vulnerability
<p>A lot has happened since our last episode of the Grassroots Podcast. A pandemic. A reckoning with racial justice. A tumultuous year overall.</p> <p>Processing all of this is a lot. While we hunger for hope, it is completely appropriate, and even necessary, to lament. Lament is something the default posture for believers when looking at many matters of justice, in particular environmental justice. Peter Harris, from the international Christian conservation organization, <a href="https://www.arocha.org/en/">A Rocha</a>, to talk about the role of lament in our faith and environmental restoration, drawing deeply from a tragic personal loss. On this episode we also explore the theme of vulnerability—how the world's vulnerable are impacted by recent events and how connecting to our own vulnerability can help us love others in these positions. <a href="https://www.instagram.com/kayla_craig/">Kayla Craig</a> from the <a href="https://preemptivelove.org/podcast/">Love Anyways Podcast</a> and the <a href="http://www.upsidedownpodcast.com/">Upside Down Podcast</a> joins us as well. Plus: we hear an update from Plant With Purpose's programs around the world, including one member in the Dominican Republic who has seen her plot of land turn into a space of safety from the pandemic.<br> <br> Check out Plant With Purpose's COVID-19 Readiness & Resilience Fund: <a href="https://plantwithpurpose.org/readinessandresilience/">https://plantwithpurpose.org/readinessandresilience/</a><br> </p>
