These are slides which accompanied a presentation I made to St. Philip the Deacon Lutheran church in Minnesota on 14 December 2021. They have been reading the book I co-wrote with Stephen Brookfield, Becoming a White Antiracist (Stylus, 2021).
This document discusses ways that white people can engage in anti-racist work. It recommends civic engagement through voting, government participation, advocacy, and community organizing. It emphasizes that anti-racist work must be grounded in justice, compassion, creativity and healing trauma. Transformation requires radical and embodied encounters with others that create change. Restorative justice and circle practices can help repair harm and build relationships in the community.
Catholic Social Teaching and Media Literacy Education: a Call to HopeRose Pacatte, D. Min.
This presentation explores the intersection of Catholic Social Teaching and Media Literacy Education in Faith Formation. Includes suggestions for film trailers or clips to reinforce themes, references to Pope Francis teachings. Updated 2021
The document discusses Jesus' missional message, motive, and life as priorities for how the church thinks about and carries out its mission. It examines Jesus' message of the reign of God, including how the church lost and must recover this message. It also explores Jesus' motive as seen in several biblical passages and how his life was one of identification, incarnation, and embodiment of grace, love, and justice. The purpose was to establish a new community pointing to God's plan for the world through demonstrating and anticipating the future brought by Jesus Christ.
Ways of seeing: theology, culture,spirituality, cinema (LMU course 11/13Rose Pacatte, D. Min.
This is the outline for two classes I taught as a substitute for Fr. Alan Deck, SJ, at Loyola Marymount University, Los Angeles, November 2013. The course explored "the nature of and the connections between culture, faith, and spirituality … in the context of cultural, ideological, and religious pluralism and secularism using popular film …"
This presentation is for the Latino Religion and Spirituality course taught by Professor Allan Deck at Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles with notes on how to critique a film (see the presentation "So you want to be a film critic" on SlideShare.net/rosepacatte
The document discusses the relationship between evangelism, social action, and mission. It argues that evangelism and social action should not be seen as separate but rather as both integral parts of mission. It also states that missiology, or the study of mission, should be determined by Christology, and that missiology then determines ecclesiology. The document questions whether in mission we are demonstrating authentic love, grace, mercy and offering a picture of wholeness as pointed to by Jesus, or just a weak portrayal of the church. It emphasizes the importance of reflecting on where God's influence is seen in our actions.

Virtual Talk with Author & Pastor Bruce Reyes-Chow on Everyday Kindness on 03/22/2022.
Meet the author of In Defense of Kindness, Pastor Bruce Reyes-Chow!
These days we view kindness as an inert act based on the absence of being a jerk, or we see it as heroic and herculean, beyond the reach and capability of mere mortals. But what if kindness was a practice we could each choose, every day, as a way to experience community and wholeness in new, life-giving, world-changing ways?
Reyes-Chow shows how being kind (which is different than being nice) has the power to transform our relationships in all arenas of our life – from the internet to the public square, from those closest to us to those we find it hardest to be kind to, from justice work on the streets to meetings in the boardroom, and from the line at the coffee shop to the line for school drop-off.
Defense of Kindness will jumpstart your heart and inspire you to practice kindness as a daily discipline, grounded in the idea that each person is created and complex and worthy of dignity and respect. Join the kindness movement and help heal the world!
This author talk is inspired by this year’s Silicon Valley Reads’ themes of Kindness, Resilience, and Hope.
Grand illusion UPDATED Pope Francis on Family, Media, Technology & Communicat...Rose Pacatte, D. Min.
This presentation provides the context for Pope Francis' 12 points + on media, media literacy education, communication, technology and the family in his 2016 document "Amoris Laetitia." It will provide insight and practical applications to the family and faith formation.
This document discusses the foundations of Christian community. It defines Christian community as a place where people can know God and each other through spiritual transformation. Key aspects of Christian community include unconditional love, the presence of the Holy Spirit, and spiritual activities like worship, prayer, and communion. The community should foster spiritual growth and equip people to transform the world through their mission. Individuals are transformed through their participation in the Christian community, and the community supports and sustains individuals on their spiritual journeys. Overall, the document explores how Christian community can empower people through spiritual transformation to change the world.

This presentation was prepared as a one hour zoom class during the pandemic of 2020 for the Religion and Film course taught by Sr. Angela Ann Zukowski at the University of Dayton. It covers the vocation of the film critic within the vocation of a Catholic sister, a Daughter of St. Paul. It also describes theology and film and ways to seek evidence of God's grace at work in cinematic storytelling.
Using Media & Popular Culture to Facilitate Encounters with ChristRose Pacatte, D. Min.
This is a presentation for those involved in evangelization and catechesis and offers a media literacy/media mindfulness approach to popular culture in faith formation. It defines culture, popular culture, and considers approaching these through the route of values and virtue. It invites catechists to embrace a life of prayer and cultural mysticism in their own lives to be witnesses to those with whom they share faith.
Chapter 3 of Renovation of the Heart ClassCarlin Trammel
The chapter discusses the ruined state of the human soul apart from God. It argues that we are all corrupted by sin and in denial of our true condition. When God is denied, intellects become darkened and sensuality becomes the primary focus as we pursue fleeting pleasures. Our pride causes us to try and take God's place, leading to self-obsession. We are lost from God and unable to fulfill our purpose. Only by acknowledging our ruin can we find the path of spiritual transformation through Christ.
JustPeace - Emotional Systems powerpointjustpeaceumc
This document provides guidance for leaders on navigating anxious times based on principles of openness, presence, and seeing others as human beings rather than objects. It discusses the difference between constructive and destructive conflict, with the former occurring when people see each other as people and disagree respectfully, while the latter happens when people see others as objects and provoke opposition. The document also reflects on a biblical passage about Jesus healing a man at the pool of Bethesda and insights from systems thinking about addressing underlying issues in a community.
Chapter 4 of Renovation of the Heart ClassCarlin Trammel
This document summarizes key points from a chapter in the book "Renovation of the Heart: Putting on the Character of Christ" that was discussed in a Wednesday night class. The chapter discusses radical goodness being restored to the soul through self-denial, losing one's life to find it, taking up the cross, and giving rather than receiving. It emphasizes becoming dead to self and one's own desires, and standing up for what is right without ego or anger. The class discussion questions focus on these themes of losing one's life in Christ, counting the costs of discipleship, finding perfect joy through suffering, and avoiding pride when standing up for righteousness.
Building Relationship With People Of Other Beliefsmaximilianyong
God's original plan was for humanity to live in harmony with each other, animals, nature and the Creator. When this was disrupted by evil, Jesus came to restore love, peace and bring people back to God. The document discusses living according to God's vision by showing unconditional love to others, healing wounds, uniting what is divided and helping those who are lost, as St. Francis of Assisi exemplified. It encourages looking past surface differences to see the divine in each person.
Saul had a negative view of Jesus before his conversion, seeing him as a blasphemer and heretic. However, his entire view was radically changed when he encountered Jesus on the road to Damascus. What converted Saul's imagination was "Christ crucified", which he came to see as God's power and wisdom despite it being a stumbling block and foolishness. The cross of Christ challenges how we think and act, as the gospel is about more than just improvements in behavior or moralism - it is about being made right with God through faith in Christ.
This document discusses Vincent de Paul's famous quote "love is inventive to infinity". It analyzes the quote's origins and meaning in the context of Vincentian charism. It argues the quote refers to God's salvific love revealed through Jesus, and calls Vincentians to creative service of the poor rooted in trinitarian spirituality and incarnational theology. It invites reflection on whether communities and ministries are sufficiently creative and responsive to opportunities, and calls for concrete commitments to manifest God's kingdom.
1. The document discusses Vincent de Paul's method of discernment which had three parts: openness to God's will, evaluation of reasons for and against a decision, and consultation with wise individuals.
2. It also examines Vincent de Paul's spiritual way which involved experience, faith, and practical action guided by wisdom and embracing extremes.
3. Key aspects of Vincent's discernment discussed include indifference to outcomes, weighing pros and cons, and seeking counsel from others.
The document discusses the wisdom of the cross according to 1 Corinthians 1:18-25 and how it relates to Passionist spirituality and suffering. It reflects on how Christ died for our sins and how the cross, though foolishness to some, is the power of God. It discusses how suffering can cultivate compassion through opening ourselves to the experience and allowing ourselves to be sensitized to others' suffering, as Christ did on the cross.
This document summarizes a chapter on God's creation of humans as rational beings made in God's image and likeness. It discusses that humans have an immortal soul which makes us like God, though we are created while God is eternal. Humans are given responsibilities as stewards over creation. The document also covers that God created marriage as a union between one man and one woman, and that virtues like charity and chastity are important for relationships. It concludes that the next chapter will examine how free will led the first humans to sin and affect subsequent generations.
Edith Stein Lecture 2018, Immaculata University, Immaculata, PARose Pacatte, D. Min.
Our world is completely wired and often we cannot see the real connections that seem invisible. In this lecture for the Edith Stein Lecture at Immaculata University on October 9, 2018, I explored questions about social media, faith, faith formation, education and evangelization, and consider how faith can be strengthened through our engagement with media.
Jesus exhibited many great leadership attributes including humility, stability, morality, integrity, diplomacy, vision, sociability, perceptiveness, common sense, decisiveness, and love. His teachings have influenced millions over thousands of years and inspired leaders like Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr. to enact revolutionary change. Without wealth, military, or formal education, Jesus conquered more people than great military leaders and illuminated human and divine matters more than all other scholars and philosophers.

His teachings have influenced millions over thousands of years and inspired leaders like Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr. to enact revolutionary change. Jesus was a powerful leader who changed the world through love and sacrifice more than any other person in history.
It is the leader's job to bridge current reality and new vision, defining goals and showing how they are attainable. This is an open dialogue for pastors and the church on social justice.

Harrell - Love and Justice Keynote 3-3-13 - FINALShelly Harrell
This document provides the keynote address by Dr. Shelly P. Harrell at the Society for Humanistic Psychology conference in 2013. In her address, Dr. Harrell poses a series of questions about whether humanistic psychology is inherently multicultural and inclusive of diverse voices and perspectives. She discusses the importance of love, justice, community, difference, and critical consciousness. The address emphasizes integrating multicultural and social justice perspectives into humanistic psychology through embracing diversity, engaging in self-reflection, and addressing systems of oppression.
To Tell the Sacred Tale: Spiritual Direction and Narrativeruffing
The document discusses spiritual direction as a narrative process where directees tell their sacred stories to a spiritual director. It explores how stories shape identity and worldview, and the many cultural narratives that influence a person's story. The spiritual director helps the directee discern the meanings and implications of their story through attentive listening and asking questions that elicit deeper reflection on their relationship with God over time.
What happens when we do theology in the digital conversation space? How does the medium shape the form and content of our theology? How does it help us to engage better with the key theological questions facing us?
This presentation looks at Walter Brueggemann's treatement of 'preaching as Sub-Version' and suggests that the key focus of theology on the internet ought to be sharing the alternative story of God in Christ who creates community among neighbours.
This document summarizes a presentation on supporting girls' faith through social media. It discusses research on adolescent brain development and girls' brains in particular. It outlines three frameworks from literature: what brain research tells us, the "sacred selves of adolescent girls", and "pedagogies of recognition". The presentation provides an analogy comparing healthy media practices to a healthy diet. It offers examples of tools and practices for engaging different age groups with media in a way that fosters realization, resilience, resistance and ritual. The overall message is that digital media can support girls' faith development when approached as a communicative practice within community.
From our Community to World CommunitiesStephdeickler
This document provides information about community from local to global scales. It discusses the definition of community and shares examples of classroom, library, city, country, and world communities. Students are assigned to create a story explaining what a community in another part of the world is like from the perspective of someone living there. They must discuss the location, culture, values, and important aspects of that community.
Social Media and Christian Community - Episcopal Village Conferencejackmjenkins
The document discusses the uses of social media in faith communities. It provides examples of how churches and faith-based groups utilize platforms like blogs, Facebook, and Twitter for pastoral counseling, teaching, outreach, community building, and administration. Case studies of The Crossing and Mission Bay Community Church illustrate how different sized groups have successfully engaged online audiences. The document advocates using social media to facilitate connections and evangelism within faith communities.
This document discusses Millennials and the church. It begins by stating that Millennials seek change through hope, knowledge, and authenticity. It then provides information about different generations, important events that shaped each generation, and how generations approach church differently. For example, older generations are more likely to attend weekly services while younger generations prefer small groups and contemporary music. The document notes that while Millennials value spirituality, many do not identify with a religious group. It suggests that churches focus on social justice and speaking up for the oppressed to attract Millennials.
Under the influence: breathing life and spirit in/to a mediated worldRose Pacatte, D. Min.
The constant barrage of bad news in a 24 hour news cycle, coupled with opportunities for multi-platfrom entertainment 24/7 with its relentless gospel of consumerism, can be depressing and overwhelming. The demands this electronically mediated environment places on the human person, body and spirit, depending on age and circumstance, requires a response that is personal, social, and cultural. Sister Rose will lead us on a silence-prayer-conversation reflection on this reality using sight and sound samples from popular media to discover ways to breathe and grow joyfully while "under the influence." I gave this presentation at Loyola University, Baltimore, Feb. 28, 2014, faculty retreat, Education Department.

This document discusses implementing sociocracy, a form of governance involving transparency, consent-based decision making, and equal roles, at Shalom Hill Farm. It proposes organizing the farm's activities into circles focused on areas like staffing, buildings, gardening, and hospitality. Each circle would have a leader and delegate to regularly interact with a general circle. Next steps outlined are learning sociocracy, setting up the circles, finding more participants, and practicing this decision making process.
This document provides an outline for a workshop exploring universal basic income. The workshop will begin with land acknowledgements and introductions. Participants will establish agreements for respectful discussion and review basic definitions of UBI and related concepts. Two videos on inequality and exploring UBI will be shown, followed by a story circle where participants can discuss their views. The workshop aims to discuss how theology can help or complicate issues around UBI and will conclude by considering next steps.
Creating brave spaces at the intersection of womanist biblical scholarship a...Mary Hess
This document discusses using womanist biblical scholarship and digital storytelling as pedagogical exercises to create brave spaces for learning. It outlines the risks of using womanist thought instrumentally or in ways that close down meaning-making. The document examines how womanist scholars embody thinking through and by means of others in their work. Digital storytelling is discussed as a participatory practice that could invite transformative learning by empowering readers and challenging assumptions. The goal is to move toward witnessing and engagement with others through community discourse, though the context presents challenges to that.
These are slides which accompanied a presentation I gave to the new faculty roundtable, sponsored by the Association of Theological Schools, held on October 13, 2018 in Chicago.

Introduction to AI for Nonprofits with Tapp NetworkTechSoup
Dive into the world of AI! Experts Jon Hill and Tareq Monaur will guide you through AI's role in enhancing nonprofit websites and basic marketing strategies, making it easy to understand and apply.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Finding, forming, sharing faith in a digital world
1. Finding, forming, sharing faith in a digital world
St. Paul’s UCC / February 16, 2022 / St. Paul, MN
(note: all underlined words are hyper links to citations and online versions)
2. frames for seeing
• context collapse
• learning in ideas, feelings, and action — while being
people in a speci
fi
c place with speci
fi
c questions
• authority, authenticity, agency
• kinds of stories
• ignite, curate, practice
3. digital media permeate our processes of meaning-
making, having their most pervasive impact
through our stories
4. digital media wrest context from our stories, and
enclose us in ever smaller spaces
5. let’s start with introductions: please share three
things about yourself in short phrases — and do
not explain them, simply state them
6. for example:
• I’ve lived in St. Paul for more than two decades on
Lincoln Avenue
• I have an adult son who had a stroke at birth and
lives with cerebral palsy, epilepsy and prosopagnosia
• My mom has been and remains the church organist
in a UCC church in Oshkosh for the last
fi
fty years
7. take a moment to think what three things you
would like to share right now
10. but we live in a world of context collapse, shaped
by algorithmic enclaves
11. we know that human meaning and learning are shaped by
ideas, feelings, and actions — and digital media are profoundly
impacting how we understand authority, how we experience
authenticity, and how we engage agency
authority, authenticity, agency
19. but stories have their own elements that
authenticate or manipulate people
20. Bell, Roberts, Irani, and Murphy
• “…stock stories .. are the most public and ubiquitous in dominant,
mainstream institutions… the other story types critique and challenge their
presumption of universality
• Concealed stories … are often circulated, told and retold by people in the
margins whose experiences and aspirations they express and honor, and they
provide a perspective that is often very different from that of the mainstream
• Resistance stories are … stories, both historical and contemporary, that tell
about how people have resisted [oppression], challenged the stock stories
that support it, and fought for more equal and inclusive social arrangements
• Counter Stories … are new stories that are deliberately constructed to
challenge the stock stories, build on and amplify resistance stories, and offer
ways to interrupt the status quo and work for change”
citation
21. so what are we to do?
ignite, curate, practice
22. For example …
• to glimpse a stock story (Generic Brand Video by Kendra
Eash)
• concealed stories (The War on Drugs by Jay Z, et. al. )
• resistance stories (Understanding Charlotte, by Dr.
Rodney Sadler)
• counter stories (Knowing by Mai Vang) (Seriously by This
American Life)
23. it is inevitable — and appropriate! — that people
learning how to discern such stories in our wider
social spaces will also use them for discernment
close in at home, in religious ways and places and
practices
24. So, for example…
• a stock story (Bp. Nienstedt in MN)
• a concealed story (House for all Sinners and Saints in
Denver, CO)
• a resistance story (music video from Selma) (MN United
campaign)
• a counter story (House for All Sinners and Saints)
25. story practices
• learning to listen
• moving from listening to hearing
• hearing one’s own voice in relation to God (spirituality)
• hearing each other’s voice in relation to God (vocation)
• hearing God’s voice in the world (mission)
