Reclaiming Our Poetic Souls: A Pride Month Reflection on Authenticity and Faith
Have you ever wondered when the creativity and wonder you felt as a child faded away? Through the lens of a child's poetry, a Colonel's posthumous coming out story, and Jesus's bold authenticity in the temple, this Pride Month sermon explores a question that haunts many of us: When did we stop being poets? Drawing from personal experience and theological insight, I examine how societal pressures and religious traditions can silence our authentic voices – and how we might reclaim the divine poetry within.
