A lot of hot takes out there about why young people get involved in crime...
Over the last decade I've served a diverse range of rangatahi (both rich and poor), many who've gotten on the "wrong side of the law".
Here's some things I've learnt...

Here's some things I've learnt...
1.There are no "bad kids" out there, only hurt ones. No matter how tough, scary, big, or bad, a young person may seem to you, when you take time to listen and hear what's going on under the surface the reality is a child who is hurting and really just asking to be seen.
2. Rich or poor, when YP feel disconnected from their whānau and community, ostracised and othered, they are more likely to become involved in crime. This disconnection can happen as a result of communities scape goating YP and expecting little of them (currently occurring atm)
The Gospel is political, but its not Nationalistic. Those who wish to tie our faith to the expansion and supremacy of the state miss the point the Divine is making on the cross.
The politics of Jesus are the politics of Love. Love for neighbor, love for self, love for enemy... To pick up the sword in the name of Christ is to deny both name and message
Jesus has no need of a Christian nation. Let's not waste our time on trying to legislate our morality.
Instead let us join the Divine in solidarity with those who suffer, the poor, the oppressed. Let us give ourselves over to Dreaming the Dream. To Divine Imagination.

Sooooo many reckons about our homeless whānau on @NewstalkZB / @KerreMcIvor show.
The idea that somehow homeless whānau stealing Kai is about entitlement and lack of consequences fails to grasp the issue...

Let's put this in context. We have whānau, suffering from such extreme poverty that they are living on our streets. Many of these whānau are mentally unwell, have disabilities, and have exp significant truama in their lives. Materially they have little to nothing.
Accessing the benefit is also not that easy when ur sleeping rough. From the moment u walk in the door there are barriers, homeless whānau often report exp discrimination and that they don't get the support they need. Simple things like having a bank acc can become a barrier...
This morning I had coffee with a bro who I know from way back whose living on the streets atm.
He shared with me some of what he's dealing with and we discussed how he's going in his recovery. It's been rough, and my heart broke as he shared with me a familiar story.

A story of how a system which is intended to help him, creates hoop after hoop for him to jump through, expects so much of him, let gives him so little.
A story of struggle, of fighting to change his circumstances, only to be pulled down again by the shackles of poverty and addiction that seem someàhow designed to keep him in "his place".
Sound healing-Light language, Pleiadian fam time #LoveIsTheWay 💖 
Interesting synchro..Pleiadian Collective came into our session with a message re Judgement &judging, particularly our Self. Saying that we MUST honor &love ourselves for that is biggest detriment to staying in our Light thru ascension process.Our inner critic can be relentless!
And I’ve observed even Lightworkers fall into very subtle but noticeable judgement mode, myself inc. We came here to EXPERIENCE ALL that Eartha has to offer& by our choices we each are doing just that! Nothing is good-bad, wrong-right, dark-light. It is our chosen experience.
