Weaver & Loom

Facts don’t speak. Fact must be arranged and formed to tell a Stories, but stories speak and although stories are made up of facts. And stories aren’t always true.

Show Notes

In this episode we examine the trial of O. J. Simpson, specifically how as humans we respond and believe STORIES... not FACTS.

We would like to believe ourselves as RATIONAL beings that act according to knowledge, facts, truth.

 But we are far from rational…

If we were rational no one would smoke, sit for long hours, or eat products containing MSG.

But we aren’t rational. We don’t follow the FACTS.

We arrange the facts to tell ourselves stories that we like. Stories that make up feel good…

Or . . . stories that align with the stories we have been told for generations regardless of the FACTS.

What is Weaver & Loom?

In Weaver and Loom, we unravel the wonderment of the spiritual, natural, fate, and the divine through mythic and sacred story, biblical parables, ancient fables, and Christ-haunted narratives--getting lost in the mysteries of the our human creation so that we might grope our way to Christ and become illuminated in midsts of the mundane and sufferings of life.
