Pray With Our Feet Podcast

 
Looking to connect with folks of faith making the world better daily, and learn how you can, too? Welcome to Pray with our Feet, a progressive Christian podcast, hosted by writer/creative, Emelda De Coteau, founder of the PWF community, and her Mom, Trudy Leocadio, a retired educator and prayer warrior.

Pray with our Feet is a podcast and community rooted in the radical love of Christ. We uplift the intersection of progressive Christian faith and social justice/activism. We believe we are called to make a difference in the world around us.

We believe deeply in the power of conversations to spark change. Listen in as we connect with everyone from ministers to community organizers and artists, keeping Matthew 25:40 at the forefront of our minds: “Whatever you have done for the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.”

Listen Now: Talking Healing, Liberation & Thriving with Rev.Lyvonne Proverbs

Join us for an engaging conversation with Lyvonne Proverbs, MDiv, a New York City native, and body and sex-positive light-worker, pastor, preacher, transformational speaker, writer, poet, educator, and conscious creative social entrepreneur.

An Emmy-award winning media producer, Proverbs graduated from Seton Hall University, Yale Divinity School, and Columbia Theological Seminary. She is a highly sought after presenter and has partnered with Lyft, Auburn Seminary, the Atlanta University Center, San Francisco Department of Health, Young Women Social Entrepreneurs and more. Rev. Lyvonne offers consulting for sacred and secular institutions, as well as individual and group spiritual life coaching.

Rev. Lyvonne has been featured in ESSENCECosmopolitan, and The Washington Post magazines and is the host of Courageous Currents podcast on KPFA, where she fosters conversations with her guests about life at the intersection of faith and social justice. Sojourners named her one of “11 Women Shaping the Church” in March 2019.

We delve into quite a bit during this episode:

– Understanding Jesus as liberator for the most marginalized.

– How thinkers rooted in black liberation theology, founded by Dr. James Cone (God of the Oppressed and many other books) and womanism (defined by Alice Walker in her 1983 book In Search of our Mothers’ Gardens), expanded her own personal understanding and expression of Christianity. Some of these womanist thinkers  include: Dr. Katie Geneva CannonRev. Dr. Emilie M. Townes, Delores S. Williams, and Ebony Janice Moore.

– Healing from incest (at the hands of her biological father) and founding Beautiful Scars, an online storytelling agency focused on trauma, healing and resiliency.

– @WereSurthrivors platform, a digital community for Black Christian women who are also survivors of childhood sexual abuse. By harnessing the power of narrative, she helps survivors (and communities, at large) shift from silence to storytelling.

– Moving beyond the shaming of our bodies and sex / sexuality  which is so prevalent in many churches so we can realize our personal and collective liberation in Christ.

– Seeing the body as a divine expression of God’s love for us, and embracing various practices to center self care with intention.

– The importance of therapy for our well being. Check out Open Path Collective for affordable care options.
