Belly Fires - ep 19 - Thoughts on Talks
from Thoughts on Talks - Rev. Mike & Malayna Hosted by Malayna Dawn
The Sunday talk topic, "Fire in the Belly" is actually a good connection with Ramadan, since, as Malayna pointed out, it can describe a sense of hunger as well, which is part of the fasting commitment during the month observed in the Islamic faith. But being "young, scrappy and hungry" can also describe a passionate ambition, to borrow the line from the musical, Hamilton. Topics touched upon: the things we learn from family -- mask making -- how weird hosiery is -- Martin Van Buren's hairstyle -- parks by appointment -- framing a nice shot in the garden -- fandom for St. Francis of Assisi, including a song from the Rev. -- spiritual practice and discipline -- feeling badagini ("hungry" in Sinhalese) -- Sufism - branches of major religions - "Falling Upward" by John Silvers -- also the book by Rev. Richard Rohr -- failing forward -- being up or getting up -- privilege -- Father Gregory Boyle and Homeboy Industries -- Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) -- Belonging to each other -- mysticism in Christianity -- serving in prison...as a chaplain -- role models -- looking out for our neighbors -- lessons from cars and dads -- confirmation bias in politics and religion -- Changing the Conversation -- SGN Some Good News -- sarcasm fails -- Master Class - Neil Gaiman versus Neil Diamond and Neil Sedaka -- guppies -- Flrysh -- and more!
