Sexvangelicals


Dec 2, 2024

We close our series on How to Practice Social Justice This Election Season with a two-part episode called "Letting the Dust Settle".
 
We now know the outcome of the election. For many folks, there's an enormous amount of fear, anxiety, and dread about the behavior and decisions of the incoming administration. There's also a tendency, especially on social media, to respond to every negative step that the Trump administration makes.
 
In these two episodes, we distinguish between a reactive sense of urgency and a grounded sense of urgency.
 
And, the most important characteristic of a grounded sense of urgency is taking the space that you need to grieve in a way that's most fitting for you.
 
In this episode, Julia and Jeremiah talk about:
  • Our experiences with grief this month in our own lives, and the lives of our clients.
  • The intersection of grief and the moral incongruence of Evangelical Christians.
  • Fear as a key emotion.
  • Family estrangement.
  • Pacing yourself.
Check out Episode #85: Letting the Dust Settle: Grieving Following the Election wherever you get your podcasts. Show notes and transcript are on the SV website.
 
Let's heal together!
