À propos de cet audio
In this month’s Campfire Chat, Wes, David, and Adam gather fireside to discuss Faith-Rooted Organizing by Alexia Salvatierra and Peter Heltzel. What begins as a reflection on the role of churches in public health quickly deepens into a powerful conversation about moral imagination, structural injustice, and the difference between acting out of anger versus love.
The episode dives into real stories of immigration reform, labor advocacy, and interfaith collaboration—each grounded in deep compassion rather than political expediency. They wrestle with how these lessons apply to their own work in public health and community partnerships, especially in regions like the rural South. Along the way, they explore the limitations of technical planning, the importance of trust-building, and why prayer—often dismissed as “soft”—can be one of the most radical acts of solidarity.
Plus: a detour worth taking into the novels of Lisa Wingate, and a sneak peek at next month’s pick, Under the Sky We Make by Kimberly Nicholas.
