Episode Notes:

Introduction:

  • Justin reflects on the shift in the podcast's format, now focusing on direct listener questions related to life, faith, creativity, and leadership.

Sabbath-Keeping:

  • Question: How do you build a Sabbath day?
  • Justin shares his personal history of practicing Sabbath, noting that it's a flexible and evolving practice rather than a rigid set of tasks.
  • He emphasizes the importance of regularly setting aside time for rest and reflection, allowing the Sabbath to become an opportunity to connect with God and assess one's soul.
  • He encourages listeners to work with a coach or spiritual director to reflect on what worked and didn't during their Sabbath practice.

Deconstruction Misuse:

  • Question: Thoughts on deconstruction and its current cultural use?
  • Justin critiques the modern misuse of the word "deconstruction," explaining its philosophical roots in Jacques Derrida's work.
  • He challenges the idea that deconstruction is simply changing one's mind or evolving beliefs, arguing instead that it represents a deeper shift in worldview where meaning is questioned.
  • Justin also warns against disparaging one's past self or experiences during personal growth, calling for more grace in navigating maturity.
  • He closes by explaining that true deconstruction is a posture and a way of interpreting the world, not a phase to be completed.
