Listen "Run Your Race"
Episode Synopsis
In this week's episode we're comparing the life of faith to a race we want to run well and with intention. I hope these resources will help you to do just that!
1. Song: We Will Rise Again, by David Haas, cover by Chris Brunelle
2. "Hero's Journey", at My Little Epiphanies, about my first half marathon
3. "Unlikely Holy Ground", at My Little Epiphanies, about my experience with God running around a track
4. Rescue, by Lauren Daigle
5. Video: A concise explanation of the Prodigal Son story from the Bible Project
6. Song: On My Way, by Louis Armstrong
7. Song Video: Softly and Tenderly, by Audrey Assad and Sandra McCracken
8. Song Video: Home, by Phillip Phillips
9. Beautiful art/caption from Scott Erickson on Instagram
10. Beautiful homily from Fr. Matt Williams in Quincy, MA on All Saints Day, 11/1/21: "Begin With the End in Mind"
11. Journal prompts:
What am I running toward today?
What do I want to be able to say on my last day that will reflect a life well lived?
If I look at how I spend my time, my thoughts and my resources, where are these steering me?
What are my life goals or my after-life goals?
In terms of intention in life, am I walking, meandering, jogging, running, staying put, or some combination of these today?
What was the best funeral I ever attended? How did I know that that person lived a 'good life'? What was the evidence?
Angles are everything: what small decision could I make today to pivot a bit closer to where I want to be heading on my life's journey?
