Bruce Macauley on seeing through the eyes of the other

Spiritual Misfits Podcast

'Either Jesus would come back or Tom would be healed'

This week’s episode is a rather lovely and profound conversation between myself, Hannah and Bruce Macauley (who happens to be her Dad), that is rich in both personal and philosophical wisdom.

Bruce’s faith has changed a lot since the days he believed that Jesus would either return or heal his sons severe autism.

It’s a journey involving hanging out with homeless people at a caravan park, listening to Richard Rohr sermons on CDs, reading 13th century monks and mystics and eventually heading over to the living school in Albuquerque to learn from father Richard in the flesh.

It was also pretty special to explore some of that journey with reflections from a father and daughter, who have both experienced significant faith change, though in different life stages and circumstances.

Both Hannah’s parents Bruce and Kerry are incredibly Christlike and beautiful humans. The kind that help me to see the sacred in the very ordinary moments and the very difficult ones.

I'm so grateful for this sharing of some of their story, and I’m sure you will be also.
