It was an honor and extremely fun for Andrea Lewis and me to interview Dr. Virginia Ward. She is my friend, colleague, steward of urban theology and a respected leader in Boston.
In this faith-building interview, we will hear Virginia's early days of faith development and consider the importance of:
- Proactively establishing varied spiritual disciplines.
- Exposing yourself to all "streams" of Christianity, through reading, experiencing, listening, and uniting in prayer
- Pain and Suffering in spiritual formation
- Suspending stereotypes around ethnicity and race and listening well
I am confident you will learn, and be encouraged and challenged by this podcast!
