Derek Earl started playing guitar and piano when he was grounded in his room in the seventh grade. At one point he wanted to be famous for his talent, but now he just sings and plays songs of faith. Like the universal language of music, Derek finds that his faith has the power to break down barriers between people and bring them together. “My faith is the thing that should unite people, whether you’re white or black or Hispanic or poor or rich or lived on that side of the tracks, lived on this side of the tracks.” --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/facesoffaith/message
Lionel Jimenez says he feels free when he’s participating in his faith. He describes how certain rituals provide enlightenment, but like any other belief system there are some rules. “There’s rules and teachings that my religion encompasses,” he says. But Lionel sees them more as ways of life that are there to guide and help believers help others. “I never feel oppressed. I actually feel more free.” --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/facesoffaith/message
Robert McIntosh says forgiveness is something he tries to incorporate in his interactions with others. “I think we struggle to forgive other people but forgiveness is one of the central themes of Jesus’ teachings,” he says. Robert says he may not be perfect at it, but he does pray for the ability to forgive and to forgive others. “I think that’s changed how I interact with others.” --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/facesoffaith/message
Manisha Adhikari says her faith motivates her to be and do good. It helps her to have a sense of responsibility for the world and the people around her. “What I was taught is you always treat people the same way,” she shares. “No matter their background, no matter how they are, you treat them in a good way and the people will treat you same way that you treat them.” Despite having experienced misunderstandings about her faith, Manisha explains: “It’s hard … because they only see from (the) surface.” “I was always taught to respect people, no matter their religion, no matter their age, no matter their background.” Listen as she describes her blessings, prayers, karma, and more. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/facesoffaith/message
