Parker Palmer & Peter Block: The Thread of Life

Common Good Podcast

The Common Good podcast is a conversation about the significance of place, eliminating economic isolation and structures of belonging. For this episode, we're returning to the the Abundant Community Conversation from October 26 where Amy Howton speaks with Parker Palmer and Peter Block.
Checkout the first part of the conversation here.
This event was produced in partnership with Designed Learning, Abundant Community, Faith Matters Network and Common Change. These conversations happen on Zoom and they always contain poetry, small groups and an exploration of a particular theme.

They are a part of our God-given nature, with us from the moment we drew first breath, and we are no more conscious of having them them than we are of breathing."
