Unearthed | Political Polarization (Part I)

Jeff Thiemann from Braver Angels’ “Reduce the Rancor” campaign spoke with Ian McConnell (with input from others at Fabric's live weekly gathering) about polarization during election seasons, and how we might be able to build capacity for both holding conviction and having difficult conversations.

Buried | Easter with Fabric

Maybe you wouldn't expect Easter to be a time to talk about zombies, but then again, it sort of makes sense, right? Some stories surrounding Easter give us a beautiful (if not kind of scary) look into both death and life and reminds us that there’s more to living than not being dead!

Rooted in "That Third Strand"

We’re delving even deeper into our rootedness! How might identify the divine within, surrounding, and working through all things? That's the conversation Ian is kicking off in this episode!

Rooted in Others

It turns out there’s more to roots than just individual plant life! Aspen groves are an inspiring reminder of our interconnectedness to one another and to all of creation. 

Rooted in Self

Root systems are endlessly fascinating! We’ll kick off this new series with a look at the relationship between connection and suffering, and use a couple tools at our disposal to take a closer look at our individual roots.

New Guy Scraps | Hi, Pod!

We had a week sharing stories playing Story Stitch as a community, so it seemed like a great moment to catch an inaugural "scraps" with the New Guy! Enjoy!

New Guy: Probing Curiosity

Curiosity about newbies is only natural! With Ian McConnell (the New Guy) talking about curiosity as a default posture toward new people and experiences, we took the opportunity to pose questions to Ian in an open Q&R (question and response) session.  Listen in and start getting to know Ian as he's getting to know Fabric!

New Guy | First Days

“First days” are a rare thing indeed! We welcomed Ian McConnell and family to the Fabric community for their first Sunday with us and heard from Ian about who he is, what excites him and a little about what to expect from his "default posture."
