Opening Chat
Sonia, Lezli and Jeffrey chat about their favorite Las Vegas experiences, as Rev. Jeffrey prepares to move from Vegas to Riverside, California.
The Spirituality of Social Activism
- Rev. Jeffrey was lead into the work of ministerial social activism as a person who grew up in the LGBTQ experience and felt marginalized at times. Also, coming to the mainland from his home state of Hawaii highlighted the presence of "isms" that he had not previously experienced.
- What about the "political" question? The majority of the issues are not political, but are human rights issues. They might get politicized, but they are not actually political.
- Minsters are called upon to lead with our prophetic voice. Who better to lead the charge for humanitarian and ethical issues.
- Advice for ministers and centers who are looking into this work: Get clear on your intentions, have a lot of conversation within the community before moving forward, watch the news and familiarize yourself with the actually goings-on in your community, reach out to effective local partners to accomplish more.
