The Next Chapter with Charlie
My guest today is friend and poet Steve Garnass-Holmes. Steve Garnass-Holmes’s life is rich in thought and in experience. Talking to Steve is like talking to a writer of wisdom literature. Today we will begin the show by addressing the question, “What does it really mean to follow Jesus?” Is it a heart or head issue? The heart says to love while the head becomes laden with thoughts of being right. But there is really only one way to be right and that is To Love. Steve Garnass-Holmes will challenge what you may believe and then encourage you with one simple truth. Let’s find out...

Show Notes Welcome friends to the Next Chapter with Charlie. On a recent blog I wrote the following note… “On my last trip (3 weeks in Asia), I discovered a new mantra for taking time away from home. “I no longer go on vacations to sight-see. Instead, I take pilgrimages to experience wonder.” What if I made that my mantra for every single day? “Anticipate little except moments of surprise and wonder.” And so with this, I chat with author, teacher, and landscape architect, Terry Hershy.

“We are taking down empirical Christianity.” Prominent speaker at a recent Conference by the CAC—the Center for Action and Contemplation I disagree! “We are not taking down empirical Christianity; instead, we are offering an alternative for those who have ears to hear. We are offering the Story of Love.” cbh Offering Not Oppositions But Alternatives I don’t see my religious role as one of opposition. I am not a warrior. I am healer. I am a theoretical individual. God has given me a different kind of theology than the one I lived for nearly four decades. I am also not a...

Well today, Paul, our life coach Dena Crowder and I will wrap up 2020 by reviewing my personal year and then trying to determine “what essential life wisdom lesson did I learn this year?”
Dena Crowder is THE best at digging deep into the inner self to help determine wisdom lessons learned in life.
So today I will participate in a Dena Crowder designed Life Learning Exercise in which she will take me down a road to discover what wisdom I gained from 2020.
This process is always so fun… and just a bit scary as the truth that emerges may be pleasant or it may be a significant challenge… We’ll see…
For today’s episode I plan to enter the show about 5 minutes into the conversation… but you won’t miss anything. Dena is just beginning her overview of the process.
But, before we begin our conversation, just a bit about Dena:
Dena Crowder is known as the most innovative strategist and consultant for creators and leaders. Her clients include Grammy and Emmy award winners, CNN Hero’s, founders, writers, performers, educators, and upstarts from every industry.
In her latest achievement Dena had the honor of participating as a Ted X speaker, on the subject of “The Power is You.” Now... I wonder how many is feeling that power in quarantine today? Some are thriving while others struggle deeply. That’s what I plan to talk about that today.
So… Paul, let’s join the conversation already in process with Dena Crowder and me.
You can reach Dena at www.denacrowder.com
