How We Love the Individual in Today’s Culture with Pete White (PART 2)
In this second part of a conversation with Pete White, you’ll be invited into an enchanted view of the world and to ponder what might happen if you open yourself to Love. We discuss the transformative power of submitting to God’s love, how it moves us outward to love others, and why AI will always lack.
GUEST BIOPeter G. White is the founder of Vocatio Consulting, an organization that seeks to bring ‘life to life’ by aiding individuals and groups in the discovery and employment of their vocation, or ‘life-calling’. Pete’s chief interest in whichever context he finds himself, is to collaborate along these lines by helping people to ‘become themselves’ by learning to inhabit their vocation as a living craft. Pete is a grateful husband and is a father to three wonderful children with his wife, Kandy. Pete’s hope is to help see the character of Christ realized in the places that are most precious to us all, whether spousal, familial, social, educational or societal. He lives in Abbotsford, British Columbia, where he has operated a private psychotherapeutic practice for 17-years under the banner of Vocatio. He offers courses to executive groups and consulting services to organizations who require content expertise in the territories of psychology and/or Christian spiritual formation. Pete deeply loves the Church and is a grateful guide and accompanier to parishioners and Christian leaders across a number of associated domains.Pete regards himself as an apprentice of Jesus Christ.
