The title of this presentation is taken from Jungian Clarissa Pinkola Estes’ 2003 essay entitled “We Were Made for These Times”. While written 18 years ago, her insights provide beacons of light and challenge for our time. Times of transition—while disconcerting, sometimes disheartening—hold a hidden hopefulness. For millennia, the people of God search for what can sustain them through their wilderness wandering. There is always manna in our desert. The bent over woman in the Gospel of Luke provides a biblical basis for a model of challenge and opportunity for living as we navigate complex, turbulent times. We can do this. Fee: $25
