The dangerous disconnection from community that comes from being connected

You have two months -- Your Fear is Helping You -- Protecting Christianity?

The parallels are obvious. Build your network. Take 10 with Sarah Blondin and let your fear teach you to have more peace and love. Faith in the White House when even if they are not Christian, most Americans want reproductive rights and to protect transgender people.   Photo by Igor Omilaev [https://unsplash.com/@omilaev?utm_content=creditCopyText&utm_medium=referral&utm_source=unsplash] on Unsplash [https://unsplash.com/photos/a-close-up-of-a-text-bubble-with-the-word-wft-on-it-xvHl_X9Ojrg?utm_content=creditCopyText&utm_medium=referral&utm_source=unsplash]

The dangerous disconnection from community that comes from being connected

Disasters bring out the best in people. Hurricanes. Fires. The solution seems to be going back to basics. Meet people you don't know. Go on. It's what people did before social media -- how we divide ourselves and they win.

How can we be grateful amidst catastrophe? NIL as exposing truth. Disaster denial

When the shit hits the fan, how can so many emerge to be so good?  Catastrophes bring out the best in people, but not everyone. The two major men's college sports aren't even pretending anymore, and just reflects what America is all about and explains why this new era is not going to be America as we knew it. Why do we insist on blaming individuals for disasters unless it suits us? Just be kind. Photo by Sergey Meshkov: https://www.pexels.com/photo/blazing-fire-8481677/

Find meaning in meeting people, not religion, shopping, or social media

Where can you find meaning in a chaotic world that seems increasingly senseless. Religion, owning stuff, and social media don't make us feel better. They often make us feel worse. Does the push for religion in public buildings and schools really reflect a society that lacks standards and hope? Is it a political power play?  The constant barrage of messages designed to remind us of what we lack, just makes us want more, even if we have a good life. Perhaps our problem is that we are isolating ourselves - working from home, scrolling on our phones, living around people who believe exactly what we do. Meet more people. Put down the phone. Do a hobby with people you don't know. Put away the credit card.  Listen live at 11 AM, Mondays: www.ashevillefm.org [http://www.ashevillefm.org] and enjoy the tunes that fill the rest of our hour-long show -- or get the Asheville FM app.
