[edit] Current needs
- Plans remain to hire additional staff to:
- schedule radio interviews
- schedule programs at colleges
- schedule programs at conservative Christian churches
- act as a personal assistant to Michael
- organize ongoing activities to engage local passions and interests before and after presentations
- If there is a specific task for which you would like to volunteer, write to Michael and let him know.
[edit] How has Evolutionary Spirituality impacted our lives?
- It has instilled "evangelical impulses" to share its life changing message.
- It has provided a sense of peace and balance in a hectic world.
- It has sparked creativity to learn by teaching and writing.
- It has resonated a "cellular memory of being at the big bang."
[edit] How can we bring together people with this interest?
We discussed the concept and the power of "open space technology" or "unconferencing" and encourage self-organization for each of us to take responsibility for what we are most energetic about and use ourselves for that purpose.
Possibilities are endless and include:
- volunteering to host or convene conversations about evolutionary spirituality
- setting up ways for people with these interests to find one another
- social networking sites or in our local communities
- space on Michael's website/social software/telephone/conference call line...
We discussed the idea of a book group via the conference call line or through social networking sites.
