Today, includes PJP on Quaker John Woolman and what it means to come to consensus through non violence which should be at the heart of the democratic process and our human relationships.

I’m reading some bits from Politics of the Brokenhearted: On Holding Tensions of Democracy written by a hero of mine Parker J. Palmer.

He’s been a guest on Spark My Muse before and someone I’ve learned from and shared about for years. He even very kindly “highly recommended” and endorsed my first published book The Wild Land Within (2021) and he was the keynote speaker at the Festival of Faith and Writing at Calvin University in 2018.

It’s the same place I hope to share about the Spirituality of the Desert Fathers and Mothers in 2026 when my book comes out. Will you nominate me to speak there?
