Some leaders say that our beliefs should not influence our behaviors, and we should “separate church and state” to lead with rational results only. Other leaders say that our beliefs are central to who we are and people we lead should expect our beliefs to impact our leadership. What do you say?
To neglect our souls and emotions is to open the door to their destructive, or cortisol’s toxic driven reactions. We see divisive results increasingly in expressions of hatred, intolerance, superiority, greed, desperation and depression.
To nourish and grow healthy souls and emotions is to open our minds and feelings to cherish all creation. Such a grace mindset approach opens spigots of serotonin, or the brain’s aha chemical that fuels wellbeing. Specifically serotonin equips us to care, serve, play, laugh at ourselves, give and start again when failure fights against us.

So what does this say about separating church and state? And how can we restore our souls personally and collectively?
We may run from those who try to convert and control, yet few people resent a grace-filled leader who treats all with care, fairness and respect. When leaders use narrow religious views to bully others into following these “religious” beliefs, destruction usually follows. So traditionally demands for “separation of belief and behavior” or “church and state,” appear to stop leaders from dominating others with rigid beliefs, imposed as a justification to convert and control those they lead.
Sadly, this separation with its attempts to obliterate beliefs has dwarfed our emotional wellbeing and thwarted spiritual growth in acts such as loving-kindness, empathy, healing or hope.
A grace mindset, when lived rather than merely preached, alters the very chemistry of our brains. And our souls led by grace, experience unconditional benevolence that alters our lives and engages empathy toward all creation. How do we know when grace genuinely exists in ourselves or in our community?
Joyful tone is the body language of a grace mindset in lived experiences. And since kindness heals our souls first and then flows to others through grace, it also raises our collective mental and emotional thermostat to unconditional kindness, wellbeing and care for one another. Sound like agape grace offers a plausible way to restore the soul of our nation?
