Permission to Speak Freely
This fall I'm going to go on a mini tour with author Anne Jackson to promote her new book, Permission to Speak Freely. Have you heard of Post Secret? A blogger invites people to send postcards detailing some deep dark secret they're afraid to tell others. The blogger puts them up on his blog. People have submitted some wild secrets: funny, tragic, poignant. And their art is pretty amazing too. Post Secret blog has taken off and the blogger published a book.
Anne was taken by the idea. So she asked her fans and readers this question:
What's the one thing you don't feel safe to talk about in church?
People sent in their responses. Anne's book features those original post cards, as well as her own essays, poetry, and story about her own secrets. The secrets she wasn't allowed to share in the one place we should all feel safe to be our whole selves, warts and all: church.
Permission to Speak Freely Tour this fall.
We've got a few dates schedule in the Pacific Northwest, a few in the midwest. We'd love to go more places, so if you think your church would benefit from us stopping by, please contact Chaffee Management.
