Decolonize Your Sunday Talks

April 26 • 10:00am – 12:00pm (EST)

FOR ANYONE WHO PREACHES OR DELIVERS PUBLIC TALKS

Join us for a learning pod focused on rethinking how we craft and deliver Sunday sermons and talks through a decolonizing lens. Whether you’re in a church or a spiritual community, your words matter—they shape the ethics, identity, and imagination of your listeners.

Often, colonial patterns show up subtly in the language we use and the frameworks we rely on. Even when we believe colonialism is “behind us,” its legacy continues to inform our speech and our structures. This gathering invites us to explore the postcolonial landscape, recognize how we may be unintentionally reinforcing colonial narratives, and engage tools for decolonizing preaching and public speaking.

Together, we’ll name blind spots, ask bold questions, and begin cultivating liberatory language from the pulpit and beyond.

Economic Justice

We are offering this at different price points in order to acknowledge that some have greater access to privilege and resources. Those with access to more resources pay more and thus provide the cushion for those with less access to pay less, creating a sustainable economic underpinning for services, events and items. This is a part of our commitment to challenging privilege and with that we recognize that financial resources should not be the determining factor for folks who want to access education, information and experience. Here how to navigate our offerings:

$100 – The highest cost – This is how much we would charge for the workshop if we were not implementing a sliding scale. We pay facilitators and leaders a living wage and this amount allows us to continue doing the work we are doing.  If you are financially secure and you have the income to pay for ‘wants’ without it affecting your ability to meet your needs than this is the price to choose.

$65 – The median cost  – This level is for those who would feel the financial pinch if they were to pay the highest price. If you are able to meet your basic needs, but still trying to gain long or short term financial security than this level is for you.

$40 – The lower cost – This level is for those that would not be able to attend workshops/classes at the full rate and their financial circumstance would prevent them from attending classes/workshops if not for an intentional  opportunity available to them to access services at a cost that is reflective of their economic realities. If you struggle to maintain access to needs such as healthcare, housing, food, childcare, and are living paycheck to paycheck or are in significant debt, you probably belong here and deserve a community that honors your price as an equal economic offering as the person who can pay the highest cost.
