Show Notes

When a leader’s vision comes up against beliefs, the beliefs win every time because we only act in accordance with our beliefs. In this episode, Jonathan searches for the beliefs held by those who could help ignite his vision. In the process, he surfaces three essential beliefs that underpin his vision. We also speak about the terrifying nature of truth, and the power of wonder to elevate and repair us.

Show Notes

 

    01:15          Amplify Card 30:  What do they believe about this today?

    06:30          Beliefs are what we hold to be true.

    09:18          I have to have confidence in the common ground in the things we hold to be true.

    11:18          The central belief is that of sacred dignity.

    13:37          Even amongst those who can help ignite the change, there’s been something missing.

    14:40          There’s something deeper than human rights – the bedrock.

    18:23          This vision isn’t for everybody.

    27:10          Our need for each other at the heart of the vision is new.

    30:15          We act in accordance with our beliefs.

    34:08          Some people will be immediately turned off by language that smacks of religion.

    37:35          Martin Luther King’s vision of our ability to live together.

    40:10          The first step is recognizing that we walk through life with more than just one lens.

    43:38          The danger is that what we see through the one lens we view as the truth.

    49:50          The absoluteness of the perfect truth becomes terrifying.

    51:20          How can we reach absolute truth as unfathomable complex individuals?

    56:30          Each person’s distinct individuality is part of their sacred dignity.

   59:25          “Kind of like a nudist colony.”

1:03:25          Retreating behind our own lens is terrifying because how then can we all live together?

1:05:20         When you say something that is inherently false but provocative, your voice will just blend  in with everyone else’s.

1:14:15         I want the vision to be in tune with our inner life.

1:20:12         Does “wonder” have a place in this?

1:22:35         As adults, if we could capture a little bit of wonder in our lives, what would that do to elevate us?

1:27:50         Final Answer
