In this conversation, Tara Boothby, Brooke Waters, and Jason explore the intricate relationship between love, attachment theory, and spirituality. They discuss how our early experiences shape our views of self and God, the transformative power of love, and the importance of trust in relationships.

Tara shares her journey as a psychologist and how her understanding of love and attachment has evolved, emphasizing the need for a nonviolent approach to God and the healing process.

The discussion also touches on the concept of sin as a default behavior rather than a moral failing, encouraging a more compassionate view of ourselves and others. The conversation delves into the complexities of addiction, the cycles that individuals find themselves in, and the power of choice in breaking these cycles. They discuss the importance of removing shame and embracing one’s identity, as well as the role of curiosity in fostering understanding in relationships.

Jesus says to His followers, “As the Father sent me, so send I you.” And so, how did He conquer? Read John 1:35-51. 1)He went for a walk; maybe you could go for a walk in your neighbor’s world. 2) He asked questions; maybe you could ask your neighbor, “What is it that you want?” 3) He invited folks to “come and see.” 4) He valued incompetence. 5) He made people competent. 6) He wasn’t easily offended. 7) He celebrated honesty. 8) He recognized the Kingdom at hand: God’s dream planted in His neighbor’s heart. 9) He is the Kingdom at hand: God’s dream planted in the heart of Adam.

He said to Nathaniel, “Truly, truly, I say to you, you will see the heaven opened and the angels of God ascending and descending (NOT on a piece of real estate) on the Son of Man.” I think He’s saying, “I am Israel, and I am the firstborn from whom you stole the birthright. I am the presence of the Father from whom you stole the blessing. I am your birthright and blessing. I am the edge of the Promised Land: Eden. I am taking you home to the Tree of Life in the middle of the Garden. I am the Son of God, and the Son of Man. God is my Father. Man is my mother. You, Adam, will give birth to me and all things with me. I am the decision to humble oneself and join the dance.”

There is an old Jerusalem built with stones, and it’s been condemned. And there is a New Jerusalem descending from God even now. It is your birthright, and it’s filled with the blessing which includes every Jew and every Arab; it includes Isaac and Ishmael, Jacob and Esau, Cain and Abel. “For whatever you do to the least of these my brothers,” says the firstborn, “you do to me.”

10) He invited folks to come and see His heart. And sometimes a body has to be broken for a heart to be revealed.
