Living Beyond Pain

Jay Bakker gives a Sunday morning talk that warns us of the many tempting pitfalls surrounding a state of resignation to excessively and primarily self-identifying as a victimized individual. When we fall into this destructive pattern of weakness, we subject ourselves to more negative consequences brought on by a lack of accountability and critical self-analysis. Jay encourages the congregation that, by caring for each other and decisively cooperating as one Body, we can defend ourselves and others against these dangers while promoting healing--constantly strengthening our loving community in constructive dialogue and practicing our ability to disagree well.


Recorded on Sunday, May 16th 2021 in Seattle, Washington.

    In this conversation, the Jay explores the themes of sacred and secular as articulated by Paul Tillich, emphasizing the interconnectedness of these realms. The discussion touches on current events, community support, and the role of politics in faith, while advocating for a more inclusive understanding of spirituality that transcends rigid separations.
