God Speaks Through Wombs & The Poetry of Presence

In this evocative conversation, Drew Jackson shares the heart behind his collections, God Speaks Through Wombs and Touch the Earth. We explore the intersection of poetry and the Gospel of Luke, discussing how the "poetic lens" allows us to see God’s work in the margins and the overlooked corners of our parishes. Drew challenges us to move beyond religious jargon and instead find a language that resonates with the real-life struggles and joys of our neighbors, reminding us that God is often doing something new in the places we least expect.

This preview is just the beginning of the story. If you’d like to watch the full hour-long conversation, we invite you to become a Parish Collective member and join us in supporting the work of neighborhoods everywhere.
