Here is a question Rev. Dr. Angela Parker asks when she preaches to white congregations.
How do YOU come alongside Black and Brown bodies who are part of the body of Christ? How do YOU walk in community?

Imperfect. And complete. Rev. Dr. @anp22fab reminds us how giving ourselves permission is important.

Here's a good place to dig in a little (open access) on wisdom (prudence) in the practice of ministry. 😃

"I have learned that even in my imperfection, I am still complete because of the love that I have for my husband, for my children, for my grandchildren, for my parents, for my brothers and nieces, and even for my students."

interestingly we worked closely w/nursing scholar Patricia Benner as an advisor to @LPI_Project. She writes about nurses having a "clinical imagination" which is a parallel to #Pastoralimagination. Both are phronesis / practical wisdom.

What are you missing at this moment, friends?
The mundane (that lunch date you planned) or the more profound... lives cut short, gender & race equity, interventions for climate change, fair laws for lgbitqua+ folx, reproductive justice.
We will hold the missing pieces with you.

Deep Peace to you, Friends.

practice of ministry....
5) benefits from seminary, but MORE practice should come into classrooms
6) can be framed by profs and mentors so new minsters are not shocked
7) needs mentors & feedback to grow
much more here 😄

THE GAP is why I wrote #Pastoralimagination!
@LPI_Project = 12 yrs of research
The practice of ministry:
1) is embodied, relational, emotional & spiritual
2) is actually learned in practice over time
3) integrates knowledge, skill & character; seminary needs to do better

Having just interviewed 60+ clergy and lay leaders in the last two months, I can say YES again. Pastoral imagination is alive and well in pastors, chaplains, ministers, and lay leaders all over the US in a wide range of ministry settings.
What a joy to have a front-row seat!
What is pastoral imagination? How can it be nurtured by clergy & laity? @ecampbellreed shares how clergy can cultivate & nurture pastoral imagination in order to address conflict, experience joy, & develop a deep, wise knowing. Listen now/read transcript. ow.ly/Ji0M50FEVyK
