Pricelis Perreaux-Dominguez: Being a Sanctuary
Tuesday Oct 15, 2024

“The biggest thing is to affirm ourselves and not wait for anyone or any room or anyone with any degree or any letters behind their name to affirm our voice and to say that our voice matters. We need to say it to ourselves and for ourselves.” — Pricelis Perreaux-Dominguez
Author Pricelis Perreaux-Dominguez joins us on the podcast to talk about cultivating communities that offer a sense of safety, belonging, and sacredness to each person.
What does it mean to pursue truth, compassion, and dignity in our church communities? Author Pricelis Perreaux-Dominguez joins us on the podcast to discuss her book Being a Sanctuary: The Radical Way for the Body of Christ to Be Sacred, Soft, and Safe. In our conversation, Pricelis offers a clear-eyed critique of some of the areas where our churches have failed in communicating compassion, then gently offers thoughtful suggestions for ways that we can reform and repair our own hearts and our beloved communities. Pricelis combines spiritual formation practices and an invitational style with stories about justice and a vision for a more reflective church body. Her own personal stories add specificity to her vision, and we’re left with a set of tools for growth and self-examination. I think you’ll enjoy our conversation, and if you listen to the end of the credits, you’ll hear an excerpt where Pricelis offers encouragement for grad students about perseverance.
So jump right in! We're so glad you're here.
