When God gives us talents, we are entrusted to be good stewards of those precious gifts.
I take my work as a pastor, speaker, workshop presenter and food justice activist seriously. I am a firm believer that God blesses us to be a blessing to others, and to consider ways in which we can work collectively for the building of God's kingdom/kin-dom.
This workshop utilizes the elements of effective storytelling as a tool to create narratives that raise awareness about food injustices, while also examining the effect to the most vulnerable in our communities.
This workshop is specifically designed for faith-based leaders and examines the biblical mandates and responsibilities of what it means to be good stewards of the land that God has entrusted us to manage. What happens when the understanding of "dominion" is damaged? How does that lead to gentrification, famines and displacement? And how do we live into our role as stewards who care about our neighbors?
This workshop is specifically for women and/or young girls with the focus on understanding the power of your voice and how to use it effectively to speak truth to power, to call out injustices, to honor yourself as God's creation and to move from the marginalized spaces to your God-given space within the Beloved Community.
How do you see God at work in your life, in the community where you live and in the world? Is your faith limited to how you practice it in worship settings or do you live your faith out loud? This workshop looks at examining the Sacred Text through the lens of the marginalized, the least and last - and how the gospel calls us to respond to the callous ways that people are oppressed based on socio-economic status, gender and ethnicity.
Food insecurity is real and it affects more people than you think. While temporary solutions like food pantries are short-term responses, what are the long-term responses that we should consider? How do we craft the language to talk about advocacy, policies and calling the injustice what it really is ---food apartheid? This workshop helps to build that framework that leads to actionable implementation.
