Finding Resilience When There's No End in Sight: What Can We Learn from Harriet Tubman?

Where do we find sus­te­nance – phys­i­cal­ly, finan­cial­ly, emo­tion­al­ly, men­tal­ly, rela­tion­al­ly, spir­i­tu­al­ly, eccle­si­as­ti­cal­ly – in a long sea­son of iso­la­tion and dis­ori­en­ta­tion? The life of abo­li­tion­ist Har­ri­et Tub­man is a shin­ing exam­ple of near­ly inex­plic­a­ble resilience and per­se­ver­ance. Join the­olo­gian Willie Jen­nings, musi­cian and Ren­o­varé board mem­ber Donn Thomas, Ren­o­varé pres­i­dent Chris Hall, and host Car­olyn Arends for a con­ver­sa­tion about the prac­ti­cal lessons we can learn and apply from Har­ri­et Tubman’s life, par­tic­u­lar­ly as they relate to the cur­rent sea­son. This live webinar was recorded on June 23rd, 2020.
