Creating and Cultivating Brave Space

As we press into the kind of healthy, growth-producing conflict that Jesus calls us to and empowers us for, take a moment to listen in to the Spirit’s invitation in these gracious, bold words.

Brave Space
Micky ScottBey Jones

Together we will create brave space,
because there is no such thing as "safe space."


We exist in the real world.


We all carry scars and we have all caused wounds.

In this space,


We seek to turn down the volume of the outside world,


We amplify voices that fight to be heard elsewhere.

We call each other to more truth and love.

We have the right to start somewhere and continue to grow.


We have the responsibility to examine what we think we know.

We will not be perfect.


This space will not be perfect.


It will not always be what we wish it to be, but it will be our brave space together,

And we will work on it side by side.
