    <description>The What Would It Take podcast is an endeavor in imaginative liberation. Each week we do a deep dive into an important issue or problem and evaluate it through theological, sociological and political lenses. As we explore each topic we ask "What Would It Take?" for this issue to be resolved? 
You'll leave each episode feeling more informed and empowered to bring the world we imagine into existence.

      <itunes:subtitle>Mothers’ Day is both a day to celebrate and to grieve. Some are celebrating the mothers they still have. Other’s are grieving the moms they lost or never knew. Still others, find themselves doing both while also being celebrated as a mother. It’s a day that brings up any number of emotions. The last two or three years, my own grief has ambushed me on Mothers’ Day. I’ve felt blindsided by it, quite frankly. Strange still, my mothers are still alive.</itunes:subtitle>

      <itunes:subtitle>We’ve all seen it right? The trope about why people die in horror movies? You hear a dangerous noise,
so go outside to investigate, and boom, the killer got you. In that moment, I think to myself, you weren’t
afraid enough. A little fear, will go a long way in keeping someone alive right?

You should be afraid to touch a hot stove, or to drive drunk or to eat a poisonous berry. That’s good
fear. But sometimes, our fears can go into overdrive. We can even become dependent upon them and
they go from being a survival tool to a crutch.

So how do you know the difference?</itunes:subtitle>

      <itunes:subtitle>In early May 2022, a draft of a supreme court opinion was leaked which highlighted the Supreme Court’s intention to overturn Roe v Wade. This news has sent shockwaves through the country which are still rippling today.

In this episode we will unpack why this matters and what the ramifications could be for women and families all across the country and examine the roots of the conservative obsession with abortion rights. While some see a religious obsession with when life begins or ideological convictions that equate abortion with murder...I see political games and outright racism.

      <itunes:subtitle>Since the war in Ukraine began in February, we’ve heard reports of terrible atrocities. Mass graves uncovered, the entire port city of Mariupal besieged for months which has led to a humanitarian crisis. Women and children injured or killed during strikes on residential areas.

As I listened to reports in late February, I heard several prominent reporters openly noting their horror and surprise that we were witnessing such tragedies in a “civilized”country. Let's dig into this idea of "civilized" and "uncivilized" countries and how its roots in White supremacy influence our reactions to current world conflicts. </itunes:subtitle>

      <itunes:subtitle>For a lot of people, especially those that grew up in more conservative christian environments,
conversations about sex come with a lot of baggage. We were told that our bodies, aka our
flesh, was at war with the spirit and therefore we should resist the flesh. So we spend years
suppressing, resisting and even demonizing our own desires thinking it's the right thing to do.
But hat if that wasn’t true?</itunes:subtitle>

        <![CDATA[<p>As Anabaptist christians, we claim to center Jesus’ work and actions in our faith. If Jesus came<br>
to set the oppressed free, how can we go about our lives while ignoring the truth that our<br>
brothers and sisters are not only oppressed, but often murdered without justice?</p>

<p>This is Episode 2 of the What Would it Take? podcast. Today we’re exploring police abolition as<br>
we wrestle with the question: What would it take for everyone to be free?</p>
