Yearning for wholeness with Elizabeth Oldfield (Part 2 of 2)
Manage episode 442959729 series 3423053
Elizabeth Oldfield is the author of Fully Alive: Tending to the Soul in Turbulent Times. She has spent her career trying to lever open space for deeper conversations - about what it means to be a human being, where we can find wisdom and how we build a society where we hate each other a little less. She has worked at BBC Radio 4, led a Westminster think tank, and is now the host of The Sacred podcast, speaking to guests like Nick Cave, Sally Philips, Rabbi Sacks, Rainn Wilson, Sathnam Sanghera and Krista Tippett about their deepest values. She lives with her family in a Christian intentional community in South London.
In this second part of our conversation, we talk about:
- Moving beyond individualism
- Moving from wrath to peacemaking
- Moving from greed to generosity and gratitude
- Finding freedom in commitment
- The concept of God
