Acerca de esta escucha

From the moment European settlers reached these shores, the American apocalypse began. But Native Americans did not vanish. Apocalypse did not fully destroy them, and it doesn't have to destroy us.

Pandemics and war, social turmoil and corrupt governments, natural disasters and environmental collapse—it's hard not to watch the signs of the times and feel afraid. But we can journey through that fear to find hope. With the warnings of a prophet and the lively voice of a storyteller, Choctaw elder and author of Ladder to the Light Steven Charleston speaks to all who sense apocalyptic dread rising around and within.

You'd be hard pressed to find an apocalypse more total than the one Native America has confronted for more than four hundred years. Yet Charleston's ancestors are a case study in the liberating and hopeful survival of a spiritual community. Charleston points to four Indigenous prophets who helped their people learn strategies for surviving catastrophe. Through gestures such as turning the culture upside down, finding a fixed place on which to stand, listening to what the earth is saying, and dancing a ghostly vision into being, these prophets helped their people survive. These ancestors' words reach across centuries to help us live through apocalypse today with courage and dignity.

This is the kind of book we urgently need today. It brings the reality of the moment together with the reality of response. Rather than either a rant or a fluffy New Age type distraction, Charleston grounds us in his presentation from his experience, knowledge, heritage, and historical context as a model for all people to unveil and confront what seems like the end of our world. Simple, practical and motivating.

The real, academic, yet invitational message

Steven Charleston’s short and powerful book reflects on specific Indigenous spiritual figures to illustrate our role in bringing hope to our current apocalyptic situation. Recovering relationships and common human experience, naming historical realities and seeking our purpose as individuals and corporately is core to his message. I’m inspired and humbly by his faithful witness. May we take action being prophets of goodness and healing in this world of division so we might have a different future from the one just over the horizon.

Hope and reconciliation-our part in community

If you are remotely interested in what an enduring prophetic spiritual experience is and how important apocalyptic thinking is you have to listen to this book. Jason Grasl does and excellent job narrating what seems to me to be a challenging text with lots of Native American names and places. Even if you aren't into Native American Spirituality you will learn something about whatever tradition you practice and you apply the principles that the author lays out. Thank you Bishop Charleston.
