Jesus, After Everything
A Quick Chat With Alison Moscoso
I can’t lie about my encounters with Jesus in the Gospels. That’s the one thing I’m not willing to give up. In this series, my friend Alison and I—though we arrive at different conclusions about the meaning of his life—stand together in this truth: Jesus matters to us deeply.
Allison is a trauma-informed spiritual director who specializes in ceremony and embodied practices of liberation from high-control religion. Together, we are inviting participants into a Holy Mischief Laboratory—an experience that approaches Jesus from new perspectives and positions, making room for curiosity, complexity, and the mystery that still refuses to disappear.
That shared conviction is the premise behind the upcoming Ember Gathering as well. Alison will be serving as one of many spiritual directors on the Ember Care Team. Ember is a reclamation of the sacred and an attempt to ignite a brighter future by creating space where what remains alive in us from our history with God can come into contact with others who are seeking community and meaning on the other side of toxic religious indoctrination.
