The Final Episode!

For more than 10 years Jonathan and Charley have been involved in the podcasting world in one way or another. Together, they started “Twelve Enough” which Jonathan continued for a number of years. And, two years ago they reunited to do “Kitchen Table Spirituality” to help with a sense of community through the COVID-19 Pandemic.

There have been a number of wonderful and powerful moments and some great episodes, but it is time to bring this chapter of podcasting to a close. In large part it is because Jonathan is moving out of parish-based ministry into wilderness-based ministry. You can see more about this at his new website.

We are so thankful to everyone for their support, their input, and their encouragement. This was a wonderful opportunity to question, to push, to celebrate, and to find God in new and different places.

Keep an eye out for other podcasts from both Jonathan and Charley!

Here is the poem/prayer that was read -

When I Am Among the Trees

by Mary Oliver

When I am among the trees,

especially the willows and the honey locust,

equally the beech, the oaks and the pines,

they give off such hints of gladness.

I would almost say that they save me, and daily.

I am so distant from the hope of myself,

in which I have goodness, and discernment,

and never hurry through the world

but walk slowly, and bow often.

Around me the trees stir in their leaves

and call out, “Stay awhile.'“

The light flows from their branches.

And they call again, “It’s simple,” they say,

“and you too have come

into the world to do this, to go easy, to be filled

with light, and to shine.”

Thank you all and God Bless!
