Bring Your Whole Self to the Experience

Done For

SHOW NOTES:

This week we continue into the 3rd of Frank’s Invitations, Bring Your Whole Self to the Experience. In this episode we continue sharing our personal experiences around each invitation, as well as challenging the application.

Our conversation returns to two basic questions: 1) What leads to a good death? and 2) What does that tell us about how to live a good life?

Leave us a voicemail with your own thoughts. We may share on a future episode.

Therapy. If you’re wrestling with your sexuality, or how to love your self, or whether God can love you, please find a good therapist. The root (of the word therapy) in the Greek actually means to create space where there is healing or relief. HINT: if your ‘counselor’ is trying to fix you or feels like they’re trying to convert you…. RUN. Seriously.
