In today's conversation, I'm joined by Ray Motsi from Bulawayo, Zimbabwe. Zimbabwe has a complex history, marked by significant violence stemming from the colonial rule of the British Empire and the subsequent fight for independence in the 1960s through the 80s. This history has deeply influenced the culture, where violence often became the preferred means of resolving conflict. The 1980s saw the continuation of this violence, with the government using brutal methods to suppress opposition. Amidst this culture of violence, Ray co-founded Grace to Heal in 2003, with the mission of helping people process trauma and fostering peace, reconciliation, justice, and conflict transformation in Zimbabwe. I hope you enjoy this fascinating conversation with Ray as he shares his journey of standing alongside his people as a peacemaker.

In today’s conversation, I’m joined by my good friend Gordon McDade, who hails from Belfast, Northern Ireland, where he still resides.

In this tumultuous environment, Gordon felt called to become a pastor, mediator, and peacemaker in his divided city. Join us as Gordon shares the joys and struggles of cultivating peace, starting a church in the city's contested areas, and his harrowing experience of being caught in a bomb explosion.

In today’s conversation Rob and Ken are joined by Andrea Campanale from Kingston upon Thames, in Southwest London, England. In 2005 a friend approached Andrea with an unexpected spiritual experience. Andrea found it difficult to find the words to help her friend, and connect the experience with her own faith. Becoming more aware of spiritual seekers in her community, Andrea began to attend her local green fair to come alongside spiritual seekers. From this experience, Andrea created Sacred Space Kingston which grew out of the realization that many people are seeking greater meaning to their lives but don't necessarily expect to find that in the church or through organized religion. Andrea and her friends have found the divine is best encountered through friendship in community, by appreciating the natural world and when they are able to express their uniqueness in creativity.

In today’s conversation, we reflect on how not everyone has had a positive experience with those who are seeking to do good such as faith based communities, the foster care system, the police and so on. What if every interaction you had with someone trying to do good was painful, what if every interaction you had with a person in the support system made you feel like a waste of time. We take the time to reflect on how we might respond to someone who has been traumatized by those who ended up doing more harm than good. Please be advised that part of our conversation might be triggering for those who have been affected by sexual abuse.If you have found today’s conversation helpful, please consider sharing, rating as well as subscribing to the podcast.

1 S3 E8 Sesay Abdul Rashid - Caring for Orphans Devastated by the Ebola Epidemic in Sierra Leone 28:27
In today’s conversation Rob and Ken are joined by Sesay Abdul Rashid from Makeni Town, Sierra Leone where he and his family noticed hundreds of children living out on the streets, having lost their families due to the Ebola Epidemic in 2014. Previously a teacher, Sesay and his family began to recognize the knock-on effects of Ebola. Parents were dying, leaving children to fend for themselves, especially girls as they are most vulnerable to exploitation. The family volunteered to take vulnerable girls into their home to provide shelter, love and care. As a result, the Hope Orphanage was born, hosting 74 children. To this day, the orphanage receives no funding from the government and the family pays to care for the girls, covering their education, clothes and medical needs out of their own pockets. Sesay and his family would love to expand their orphanage and support more children. They have partnered with Punk 4 The Homeless , which puts on charity punk gigs in the U.K., to raise the necessary funds to expand the orphanage and care for the girls. We are invited to participate in the work of the orphanage to care for these girls by donating to the Orphanage here .…
