Our House (is a very very very fine house): How Trinity House Communities Provide a Rule of Life

Terminal Vocation

Erin and Mark talk about some of their home improvement projects going on this week, including Erin's plans to repaint and Mark moving a couch in the bed of a pickup with questionable tie-down procedures. The conversation then shifts to pop culture and reports from the wedding of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce who each shared 20-minute wedding vows. Mark and Erin agree that vows are meant to be solemn promises rather than extended toasts or odes to the other person. The core focus of the episode is the Trinity House Community, a nonprofit founded by Soren and Ever Johnson. The Trinity House Community has a five-level "blueprint" for families to strive toward. The hosts emphasize that this blueprint is also highly applicable to single individuals working on personal and spiritual development. * LEVEL 1: FAITH LIFE * LEVEL 2: PERSON & RELATIONSHIPS * LEVEL 3: HOUSEHOLD ECONOMY * LEVEL 4: FAMILY CULTURE * LEVEL 5: HOSPITALITY & SERVICE
