The House That Love Built with Sarah Jackson
Listen now
Description
Sarah Jackson is the Founder and Executive Director of Casa De Paz. Casa De Paz's mission is to reunite families separated by immigrant detention, one simple act of love at a time. Sarah's journey is truly unbelievable and she recounts it in her new book "The House That Love Built". I read it and absolutely loved it. I was shocked by how I really didn't want to put it down. In this episode, we talk about the uncomfortable journey she had to go through to discover her life's purpose, the continuing barriers that immigrant families face and so much more. This is a super fun and in-depth conversation where Sarah's passion, empathy, and ability to introspect shines. ------ Find more out about Sarah's organization at https://www.casadepazcolorado.org/ ------ Consider supporting The Soul Stories Podcast at Patreon.com/soulstoriesdenver or sending a small donation to our Venmo account @SoulStories! ------ 2:13 - Casa de Paz during the pandemic 6:27 - Oliver's story 13:40 - How Sarah's journey started 21:00 - Believing in a God of abundance instead of a God of scarcity 30:25 - "Where your greatest joy meets the world's greatest need" 37:35 - Family and connection at Casa De Paz 43:15 - Challenging an oppressive system through dialogue and education 48:00 - Creating a bridge to conservative Christianity 52:07 - Hospitality homes in America 55:30 - Creating a human connection with those who have experienced brutal oppression 59:46 - Agustin's Story 107:30 - Would I want this to happen to my family? 1:11:54 - Can we love others without loving ourselves? 1:18:50 - Empathy and laughing at our shortcomings 1:23:45 - Appreciation to co-author Scott Sawyer See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
