Orbis Publisher, Robert Ellsberg, discusses "Wade in the Water: The Wisdom of the Spirituals - Revised Edition" with author Arthur C. Jones in this One On One Interview.Wade in the Water celebrates the spirituals both as art form and as unique and powerful cultural expression. Exploring the African roots of the spirituals, Jones explores the way the songs conceal a language of freedom and resistance, and the way that their spiritual consolation reinforces community solidarity. First published in 1993, this new edition traces the rediscovery and transmission of this tradition and its meaning for a new generation and new challenges.Get your copy of the book: https://maryknoll.link/gwwCheck out more One On One podcasts - with Orbis Books ( https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL_I9zTQkaIOvdWF_dm6kbINWCZ-fkjpXt )#OrbisBooks #ArthurJones #RobertEllsberg #OneOnOne #Podcast #Spirituality#African Roots #Cultural Expression #African American Culture #Spiritual Consolation #Cultural Heritage

Today we sit down with one of the most recognizable and respected Maryknoll Missioners, current Maryknoll Superior General Fr. Raymond Finch. For those of you who are fans of Maryknoll, you’re likely greeted with Fr. Finch’s weekly Journey of Faith reflection every Sunday.  Originally from Brooklyn, N.Y. Fr. Finch was inspired by one of Maryknoll’s first priests and fellow Brooklynite, Bishop Francis Xavier Ford who was martyred in China in 1952. Interestingly Fr. Finch was one of the first students to attend Bishop Ford High School in Brooklyn named in honor of him. Journey with us to the high-altitudes of the Altiplano region of Peru where Fr. Finch worked with the indigenous Aymara community for over 20 years.  Fr. Finch reminds us that in Mission we have to meet people where they are, not where we want or expect them to be.

Orbis Publisher, Robert Ellsberg, discusses "The Not-Yet God: The Not-Yet God: Carl Jung, Teilhard de Chardin, and the Relational Whole" with author Ilia Delio in this One On One Interview.We are a species between axial periods. Thus, our religious myths are struggling to find new connections in a global, ecological order. Delio proposes the new myth of relational holism; that is, the search for a new connection to divinity in an age of quantum physics, evolution, and pluralism. The idea of relational holism is one that is rooted in the God-world relationship, beginning with the Book of Genesis, but finds its real meaning in quantum physics and the renewed relationship between mind and matter.Get your copy of the book: https://maryknoll.link/fitCheck out more One On One podcasts - with Orbis Books ( https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL_I9zTQkaIOvdWF_dm6kbINWCZ-fkjpXt )#OrbisBooks #IliaDelio #RobertEllsberg #RelationalHolism #QuantumPhysics #Evolution #Pluralism #GodWorldRelationship #BookOfGenesis #MindAndMatter #OneOnOne #Podcast #Spirituality
