Why do the Wicked Prosper?

Friends, I’m not okay.

I’ve been struggling with the question: Why do the Wicked prosper?

My conversation with author, Cindy S. Lee involves topics of great importance and interest to me. Cindy is thoughtful and spacious and one of just a few contemporary authors I cite in my new book on topics of spiritual formation.

We discuss themes of her book: Contemplative Witnessing: BIPOC Centered Spiritual Direction
