Making Spaces with Rev. Sarah Heath & Josie Jimenez

Making Spaces with Rev. Sarah Heath & Josie Jimenez

By Sarah Heath

We live in a social/political climate that thrives on making us divided. Changing that will require proximity and relationships, but the most inclusive spaces are often aesthetically uninviting and falling apart. This show wants to change that! Join Rev. Sarah Heath and Josie Jimenez as they share their dream of moving us from a D.I.Y to a D.I.T (do it together) culture. Each week they chat with an expert about making space- aesthetically, theologically, socially, politically etc. This is a show where no church/synagogue/community center closet is left unturned.

44. Halleemah Nash on Making Space to Create What Your Younger Self Needed

44. Halleemah Nash on Making Space to Create What Your Younger Self Needed

This week’s space maker is Halleemah Nash. Halleemah is a proud product of Compton, California – a city that has greatly shaped her ambition, values, and interest in reaching back as she climbs. She is a first-generation college graduate who holds a Bachelor of Arts in Business Administration from Howard University, and a Master of Divinity from Duke University and Certificate in Nonprofit Management from North Carolina Central University. Her resume is impressive working with everyone from the United Nations to the celebrity brand of Kobe Bryant- but her heart has always been in creating spaces for other people to have a chance to be mentored and creating  ecosystems that nurture and cultivate diverse talent . All the work she does is as she says “in service to the younger me” being the person she needed as she was growing up. The conversation talks about the importance of representation, the reason why rest is nothing less than Holy, and why sometimes we have to create the thing we most needed.

42. Brenda Davies on Making Space to Be Inquisitive, Fearless, Sex-Positive Christians

Often Making Space requires us to step out of the communities and the mindsets we previously held closely. After taking that step out it can be surprising when we discover that wholeness and integration require us to make peace with the places we once had to reject and to share new perspectives and experiences with both our old and new communities. This week’s Space Maker Brenda Davies never set out to become an expert in Christian sexual ethics/ theology, nor when she packed her bags for Hollywood did she see herself becoming a youtube star, but once she experienced an awakening she ended up becoming both and making space not just for herself but for thousands of other people who weren’t able to find spaces online. She now invites other people to become inquisitive, fearless, sex-positive, free-thinking Christians in the modern world. This conversation is filled with grace and empathy for people who have experienced and shared toxic values.

41. Season Three Opener with Kevin Garcia

41. Season Three Opener with Kevin Garcia

Season Three of Making Spaces had to begin with one of our favorite space makers... Kevin Garcia. Kevin is a Spiritual Director and Intuitive Life Coach. Through his work as a digital pastor and public theologian, Kevin has used their writing, podcast, and YouTube Channel to help foster communities of authentic spiritual seeking, helping people pull apart bad theology and beginning to reconstruct sustainable spiritual practices. Kevin is a fantastic conversation partner and a recurring guest of the making spaces podcast. This episode includes a conversation about why we need to face mortality to truly live, and how to make space for our own grief. Kevin reminded us that grief is a lovely dancing partner and that only by being willing to dance can we move through our grief and continue to dance with all the partners life throws at us! 

Content warning- You may feel your own trauma activated by some of the content of this episode- it discusses death, the use of drugs, and spiritual trauma. Please listen with awareness and listener discretion is advised.

40. The One About the Healing Power of Art with Lanecia Rouse Tinsley

40. The One About the Healing Power of Art with Lanecia Rouse Tinsley

How do you know when it's time to step out of “good work” to make space for “great work?” After a traumatic loss Lanecia Rouse Tinsley, this week’s space maker, took the bold leap of stepping out of creative ministry with those experiencing homelessness to become a full time creative herself. Lanecia is now a multidisciplinary visual artist and the owner and creator of LAR Art Studio. Her artistic portfolio includes a range of work in abstract painting, photography, teaching, writing, speaking. Her workshop and community art experiences challenge others to make space for their own creativity. This conversation was inspiring, and challenges the notion that art has to be a discipline of difficulty instead of a pursuit of passion.

38. The One Where Dr. Tripp Fuller Explains the Connection Between Good Theology and Beer.

38. The One Where Dr. Tripp Fuller Explains the Connection Between Good Theology and Beer.

How can you make diverse “ivory tower” theology interesting, and even palatable to the masses? The same way you make well crafted beer- by being intentional about the ingredients you put in, and being willing to share the process. This week’s space making guest is Dr. Tripp Fuller. Tripp is currently a professor in Edinburgh Scotland and the creator/host of the beloved podcast “Homebrewed Christianity.” He has spent his career opening up the theological palate of people by making theology approachable, interesting, and dare we even say fun. His ability to both love the church, and see its faults allows people to do the same. This is a really fun conversation about making space for the intellectual pursuit of spirituality and theological difference.

Ep. 36 The One Where Dan Davidson Takes the Next Logical Steps

Ep. 36 The One Where Dan Davidson Takes the Next Logical Steps

This week we talk to Dan Davidson, a community pastor/ entrepreneur/ mentor/ coffee shop owner who took the obstacle of an unwanted coffee cart and created a business training program for local at risk-youth. That coffee cart eventually became a cafe that hosts events for the entire community. From concerts, to protest art shows, Rosebud Cafe is known throughout Pasadena for its social impact. Dan is an incredible space maker who has been able to navigate big challenges by just focusing on the next logical step. This conversation contains lots of practical tools for creating sustainable/meaningful work. In a year like 2020 we all need a reminder that our obstacles can sometimes be the birthplace of our biggest opportunities.

35. The One Where Laura Foster Teaches Us How to Become Human Beings.

35. The One Where Laura Foster Teaches Us How to Become Human Beings.

This week on the show we had an incredible conversation with space maker and professional coach Laura Foster. Laura helps people to rethink their vocation and reclaim their human being”ness” and stop being what she calls a “human doing.” After a very successful career in the fashion industry a cancer diagnosis caused Laura to reevaluate her priorities. She ended up leaving her position to go on a search for what brought her joy and purpose. She ended up getting a masters in spiritual psychology and creating a coaching business that helps people move beyond the labels to evaluate what they really want to create and how they want to take up space in the world. This episode is filled with tons of practical ways to start reimagining your vocation and the ways that you can make space for your passions and dreams even without leaving the job you already have.

For more on Laura you can find her at www.laurafostercoaching.com or on instagram www.instagram.com/laurafostercoaching

New season, new cohost, new theme song, same "space making." This Season kicks off with a get to know you conversation with our new cohost Josie Jimenez. The conversation goes from her overwhelming fear that isolated camping will lead to her being found murdered to why making spaces for other people has been the driving force in a lot of her creative, vocational and academic work. This season is going to be wild so buckle up, friends, because now we have twice the energy and drive to make space in this world and when Josie's on the team, things get done!

20. The One Where Sarah talks with Colby Martin about Shifting Beliefs

20. The One Where Sarah talks with Colby Martin about Shifting Beliefs

What do we do when making space for ourselves and others creates a massive shift in our belief system? How can we hold onto our belonging and identity when everything feels like it has shifted? I am grateful to Colby Martin the author of “the Shift”  and for this conversation about shifting in your beliefs, and finding hope in helping others in the midst of their own shift. Colby was willing to hop on Making Spaces with literally zero preparation and we had an incredible conversation about making space. 

Colby wears many hats (which I can appreciate)- he is the cofounder of Sojourn Grace Collective in San Diego, and he cohosts his own podcast “The Kate and Colby Show.” He also helps to resource progressive Christian communities across the US through Launchpad partners, and as if that isn't enough he also has written two books "Unclobber- Rethinking our Misuse of the Bible on Homosexuality" and recently “The Shift- Surviving and Thriving after Moving from Conservative to Progressive Christianity." I hope this conversation is helpful and inspiring whether you are in season of needing a space or making a space for people shifting in their belief system.

15. The One Where Sarah Talks to Pete Enns and Jared Byas about Making Space for Differing Opinions

15. The One Where Sarah Talks to Pete Enns and Jared Byas about Making Space for Differing Opinions

We live in a time that is very polarized and differing opinions seem to be suspect. We need to figure out a way forward, but it seems hard to do if we can't even have a conversation, and we debate only happens from behind computer screens. There are people trying to create spaces where differing opinions are not only welcome, but encouraged, and met with curiosity. Pete Enns and Jared Byas are two of these wonderful humans. They are hosts of the podcast “The Bible for Normal People.” 

Pete a professor of Biblical Studies, and Jared a former pastor, professor, and entrepreneur have a depth of academic knowledge that most of us only dream about (ok I only dream about, but I am a nerd.) Even with all that academic knowledge and experience, they are able to take the very complex and explain it in approachable ways. Believe it or not people don’t think about the bible in the same way… ok maybe everyone knew that. They make space for people to sit in the tension of differing beliefs in a way that I find inspiring. This conversation was challenging and helpful as we try and navigate vast differences in thought and interpretation. If you haven’t heard their podcast I highly recommend it- even if you aren’t someone who would normally listen to a podcast with the word bible in the name.

Friends Episode 13 is a special episode about making space to engage the topic of racial reconciliation. Episode 14 will be released on the usual day (Tuesday) with artist Morgan Harper Nichols.

12. Maker's Edition- The One Where Sarah Explains Why Putting Wheels on 100 Year Old Pews Is a Good Idea

You asked so here is the answer.... What's the deal with wheels on your pews? How does that make space for people? How on Earth did you convince people that this was the way forward?  This is a practical episode about what it means to move from "Do It Yourself" to "Do It Together."

This is our first "Makers Episode," and it was a little tricky to make, but I am so glad we did. All of these images and accompanying video will be available on Sarah's Youtube channel available here. I am excited to share with you a couple Anita and Carol from my community who share at the end of this episode about why this project meant so much for them to work on. 

I hope that this episodes inspires you to think beyond the way things have always been done.  Remember you can always leave a voicemail or a message through the anchor page available https://anchor.fm/sarah-heath or reach out on social media www.instagram.com/revsarahheath.

11. The One where Sarah talks to Mike McHargue about Feelings and not Physics

I am delighted to share this week’s Making Spaces conversation with Mike McHargue (a.k.a Science Mike.) Mike is one of my best friends, and I always walk away from our conversations feeling grateful for time spent in deep conversation punctuated by a lot of laughter, and this conversation is no different.

Mike is a public educator trusted by millions to use empathy and deep scientific insights to help us navigate some of the most difficult parts of the human experience. Through his podcast “Ask Science Mike”, his books, and all of his speaking engagements, Mike is constantly making  space for others to engage and integrate all parts of ourselves - (even the parts that make us an ass.)

In this conversation we discuss his latest book, why we need to integrate our own cognitive and emotional side, why right and left brain definitions are actually false, and why science has the power to change the world, but only if it gets better branding. I hope you enjoy this conversation and are challenged to get curious about your own feelings!

For more from Mike check out on his podcast "Ask Science Mike" 

Or grab one of his books “Finding God in the Waves,” and “You’re a Miracle (and a Pain in the Ass),

Show Note-

For our monthly “makers episode” I would love to hear what practical questions you have about physically making space for others. Please leave me a voice mail on the anchor app or drop me a line on instagram or facebook @ revsarahheath

9. The one where Sarah talks to Jen Hatmaker about making space for our true selves.

Friends I am so excited to share with you my conversation with my friend Jen Hatmaker. If you don’t know Jen’s work- she is a speaker, hosts a really great podcast "For the love," runs an online book club, and has written some fantastic books including her newly released "Fierce, Free and full of fire" (I haven't been able to put it down!)

Jen knows a thing or two about making space for people. As Jen began speaking publicly about making space for diversity and LGBTQIA inclusion experienced a fall out with her evangelical roots that included her books being removed from Christian books store shelves. Our conversation covers the importance of making space for our true selves, so that all of our work is authentic and deeply rooted.  She is such a delight, and I think you will find encouragement, and a huge challenge to move beyond the superficial versions of ourselves.

8. The one where Sarah talks about Mental Health with Robert W. Lee during a global pandemic

A lot  of us can relate to a heightened feeling of stress, and general anxiety during this Covid 19 crisis, but for those who already experiencing mental health issues this time may only exacerbated already difficult symptoms. As a culture we have a lot to learn about making spaces for people experiencing mental health difficulties-  I hope that this episode with my good friend Rev. Robert W. Lee will inspire great conversation and thought around, how do we make space for ourselves during this difficult time? 

Rob is a pastor in North Carolina at Unifor Church- He has also  written extensively for both secular and religious news outlets.  You may recognize his name because he is the generations removed of General Robert E. Lee  and he has used that name to be an activist in the field of racial reconciliation. He participated in the 2017 MTV Video Music awards and was on ABC’s the View where he spoke about the need to confront white supremacy and white privilege in white churches.  Rob has written two books one titled “Stained-Glass Millennials” (Smyth and Helwys 2017), his second book “A Sin by Any Other Name.” Rob does all of this while making space for his own mental health as someone diagnosed with Bipolar disorder, and the mental health of others. This conversation is powerful and so important.

6. The one where Sarah talks to Designer Jessie McLaughlin about shame free design.

This week I am excited to share with you my conversation with Jessie McLaughlin the creator and designer behind Jessie Lane Interiors in LA. Her work includes bold colors and original multipurpose furniture. Jessie and I talk about how dental office design was influential in her life, why we sometimes second guess our own intuition, and we offer some helpful tips for maintaining sanity during this time of sheltering in place. We also talk about how I missed my true calling designing the interior of vet clinics.   She is truly such a joy in my life and I am delighted to share her with you- To learn more about Jessie and be inspired by her incredible work follow her on instagram @jessielaneinteriors

Trailer- "Making Spaces"

Trailer- "Making Spaces"

No church storage closet is left unturned as we restore, renew, and reconcile. We're talking Queer Eye meets Marie Kondo meets the Vicar of Dibley. (If Chip and Jo want to come too, I won't object.)

We live in a social and political climate that thrives on making us more and more divided. We need proximity and relationships to break down this division, but our most inclusive spaces are often run down and uninviting.... and if we are honest smell a bit like a nursing home.

This podcast will discuss how to transform the spaces where people gather — from churches, to synagogues, to coffee shops — into spaces that are inviting and make people encounter each other in meaningful ways. I bring my eclectic group of friends (think: experts on racial reconciliation and inclusion, musicians, artists, designers, athletes, comedians, actors, rabbis, pastors, drag queens, you know typical church folk) along for the ride to move us from a D.I.Y. culture to a D.I.T. culture -- Do It Together. 

Join me, because when we make space nothing short of miracles are possible!
