Listen in as host Eileen Campbell-Reed interviews scholar, artist, and liturgist Rev. Dr. Cláudio Carvalhaes. In 2023 Cláudio produced and played the main character in his very first play. In this conversation, we hear about Cláudio’s creative process in putting the musical play together. Cláudio is from Brazil, and he drew on his childhood stories, music, and relationships as this new form of performance took shape. The idea of a play came to him as he considered how to talk with his students about climate change. His goal is to help his students, and all of us, consider the climate emergency from a new point of view.

Listen in as host Eileen Campbell-Reed shares her experience of unearthing treasure while she cleaned out her parents’ house in the spring and summer of 2024. Like so many of us, Eileen’s family held onto lots of things. Sifting through these things brings a wide range of emotions to the surface. We might ask what do these feelings and digging through history teach us about the practice of ministry? In this episode, Eileen suggests three possible treasures for us to consider.
