Episode 23: Self-Emptying
Kenosis is the practice of self-emptying – releasing our attachments to what we possess, both intangible and tangible – so that what we possess can be used for the movement of God – love, healing, wholeness of the world.
In today’s episode, we will reflect on something we possess, how we react when it is threatened, what attachments of control, approval or security are tethered to it, and then let it go. And then we can see glimpses of God’s movement in it and with it – in it and with us.
“When you take something you possess – your bread and power, abilities and identities, your comfort and control, your treasured structures and even life itself – and release your attachment to it and make it useful to God’s movement, that is when you are practicing kenosis.” -Stephanie Spellers, The Church Cracked Open: Disruption, Decline, and New Hope for Beloved Community (Church Publishing Incorporated: 2021)
