Accepting & Blocking - E5 - Narrative Theology
Manage episode 422241094 series 2825246
"I'm not your mom, and you're actually a dog".
A ridiculous reply, without a doubt (especially taken out of context, but you'll have to listen to the podcast for that). Tragically, the Church sounds precisely like this most of the time.
A blocking response like this one is based on fear. Fear that we cannot let go of control of the narrative, fear that the story will not unfold in the right way. And what does that say about our ultimate trust in God?
Accepting an offer, and moving the narrative forward, requires a "Yes, and..." response. Fr Geoffrey and Fr Yuri discuss how to say "Yes, and..." and also whether there is a place for "no" within the model of accepting offers.
