ISSUE No. 50 | OCTOBER 2024
WELCOME
If you’re new to CULTIVARE we welcome you! CULTIVARE is a monthly field guide for life and faith, brought to you by TEND. Each month we explore a specific “field” – a topic or theme through which we seek to cultivate contemplation, engagement, and deeper understanding. Our guiding questions are:
What are you cultivating in your life?
What fruit do you want your life to bear?
Each issue of CULTIVARE is structured into three parts:
Cultivate: Examines a specific “Field” or facet of life and offers questions to unearth and challenge our held perspective; along with concise kernels of truth which we call “Seeds.”
Irrigate: Explores the ways we nurture our understanding, which varies from individual to individual. We offer six means of irrigation: Art, Poetry, Profile, Film, Essay, and Books.
Germinate: Encourages practical ways to engage in becoming more fruitful and free in our lives.
Our name, CULTIVARE, in Spanish means “I will cultivate.” We hope each issue of our field guide will encourage you to do just that – cultivate new thoughts, actions, faith, hope, and fruitful living. We invite you to dig in and DIG DEEP!
FIELD
For we are partners working together for God, and you are God's field.
(I Corinthians 3:9)
Our theme this month is MILESTONES. What do you think of when you think of milestones? Do you think of meaningful moments in your life? Events that have shaped and molded you? Literal road markers dotting a long highway?
The first definition for “milestone” in the Cambridge English Dictionary reads: “An important event in the development or history of something or in someone’s life.” Parents know the joy of watching their children reach certain milestones, from first steps to first words. Athletes know the joy of pushing themselves to greater achievements. Seniors recall meaningful events that have marked their seasoned lives.
Each of our lives involve a unique series of moments that woven together tell the story of our lives. Some moments are exciting while others are experienced as mundane. Some involve pain and loss while others generate deep joy and abundance. Milestones like graduating from school, getting married, or the birth of a child can be defining moments in a life. So, too, can a diagnosis, a divorce, or the death of a loved one. Milestones can occur in any season of life. And they can often involve complicated, complex feelings.
The hymn Come Thou Fount contains a lyric that speaks to milestones:
Here I raise my Ebenezer
Here by Thy great help I've come
The word “Ebenezer” appears three times in the Bible (all in 1 Samuel), and each time the word is used it is permeated with profound significance. In Hebrew, Ebenezer means “stone of help” (eben = stone; ezer = help). 1 Samuel 7:12 (MSG) reads: Samuel took a single rock and set it upright between Mizpah and Shen. He named it "Ebenezer" (Rock of Help), saying, "This marks the place where God helped us.”
This issue of Cultivare is a milestone for us as it marks our 50th issue! We began this experiment of an online magazine amidst the struggle and strain of the pandemic. It was our humble attempt to encourage friends and loved ones and fellow pilgrims on their faith journey amidst the loss and longing, disorientation and depression, that often marked that painful and challenging time in our world. We are grateful for the many expressions of grace and gratitude that have been directed to us in the last four years.
In this issue we feature a poem by Billy Collins and highlight seven artists who talk about milestones in their artistic careers that have impacted their work. We spotlight Susan B. Anthony and her deep faith that propelled her advocacy. And we feature reflections from four of our Cultivare team members as they recall events that have been formative in their spiritual lives.
So, I return to our opening question: What do you think of when you think of milestones? What are those events in your life where you can say, “This marks the place where God helped me.” We hope this issue will encourage you to take some time to sit, recall, and reflect on those meaningful milestones in your life that have shaped and formed you. Once you identify them, may we each celebrate with the hymnist by proclaiming: Here I raise my Ebenezer! (DG)
***
These stones will remind the people of what the Lord has done. In the future, when your children ask what these stones mean to you, you will tell them that the water of the Jordan stopped flowing when the Lord's Covenant Box crossed the river. These stones will always remind the people of Israel of what happened here."
(Joshua 4:5b-7 GNT)
Mark the milestones of your mercy and love, God;
Rebuild the ancient landmarks! Forget that I sowed wild oats;
Mark me with your sign of love. Plan only the best for me, God!
God is fair and just; He corrects the misdirected, Sends them in the right direction.
He gives the rejects his hand, And leads them step-by-step.
From now on every road you travel will take you to God.
Follow the Covenant signs; Read the charted directions.
Keep up your reputation, God; Forgive my bad life;
It's been a very bad life. My question: What are God-worshipers like?
Your answer: Arrows aimed at God's bull's-eye.
(Psalm 25:6-12 MSG)
Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.
(Philippians 3:13-14 NIV)
SEEDS
A handful of quotes to contemplate and cultivate into your life
Remember to celebrate milestones as you prepare for the road ahead. (Nelson Mandela)
I think one of life’s great milestones is when a person can look back and be almost as thankful for the setbacks as for the victories. (Bob Dole)
The safest road to hell is the gradual one - the gentle slope, soft underfoot, without sudden turnings, without milestones, without signposts. (C. S. Lewis)
Parenting is a stage of life’s journey where the milestones come about every fifty feet. (Robert Breault)
It’s easy to see how far you are from your desired outcome. It’s easy to see that you are not the man you want to be. The easy thing is not always the best thing. It’s also easy to get discouraged about the marathon that you are only a fifth of the way through. Instead of focusing solely on the hard work and pain ahead of you, take the time to celebrate the steps you have made, the milestones you have passed. (Josh Hatcher)
When you have a life milestone happen, it’s good to step back and reassess the things you thought you knew about yourself. (Emily Yoffe)
Poems in a way are spells against death. They are milestones, to see where you were then from where you are now. To perpetuate your feelings, to establish them. If you have in any way touched the central heart of mankind’s feelings, you’ll survive. (Richard Eberhart)
Don’t die without embracing the daring adventure your life is meant to be. You may go broke. You may experience failure and rejection repeatedly. You may endure multiple dysfunctional relationships. But these are all milestones along the path of a life lived courageously. They are your private victories, carving a deeper space within you to be filled with an abundance of joy, happiness, and fulfillment. So go ahead and feel the fear. Then summon the courage to follow your dreams anyway. (Steve Pavlina)
For those who choose to live no longer as tourists but as pilgrims, the Songs of Ascents combine all the cheerfulness of a travel song with the practicality of a guidebook and map. Their unpretentious brevity is excellently described by William Faulkner. “They are not monuments, but footprints. A monument only says, ‘At least I got this far,’ while a footprint says, ‘This is where I was when I moved again.’” (Eugene H. Peterson)
ART
My Big Break:
Seven Artists on Early Milestones
That Changed the Course of Their Careers
The career of an artist is almost never linear and rarely marked by the same kind of milestones other professions can point to. In this article from art.net, read about the interesting milestones of artists as they reflect on serendipitous personal encounters, reversals, chance discoveries and unexpected epiphanies – all of which helped define their art. Featured artists include Boris Mikhailov, Dara Birnbaum, Torbjorn Rodland, Mickalene Thomas, Claudia Comte, Takashi Murakami, and Matthew Pillsbury.
POETRY
On Turning Ten
By Billy Collins
The whole idea of it makes me feel
like I’m coming down with something,
something worse than any stomach ache
or the headaches I get from reading in bad light--
a kind of measles of the spirit,
a mumps of the psyche,
a disfiguring chicken pox of the soul.
You tell me it is too early to be looking back,
but that is because you have forgotten
the perfect simplicity of being one
and the beautiful complexity introduced by two.
But I can lie on my bed and remember every digit.
At four I was an Arabian wizard.
I could make myself invisible
by drinking a glass of milk a certain way.
At seven I was a soldier, at nine a prince.
But now I am mostly at the window
watching the late afternoon light.
Back then it never fell so solemnly
against the side of my tree house,
and my bicycle never leaned against the garage
as it does today,
all the dark blue speed drained out of it.
This is the beginning of sadness, I say to myself,
as I walk through the universe in my sneakers.
It is time to say good-bye to my imaginary friends,
time to turn the first big number.
It seems only yesterday I used to believe
there was nothing under my skin but light.
If you cut me I could shine.
But now when I fall upon the sidewalks of life,
I skin my knees. I bleed.
PROFILE
Susan B. Anthony
By Bonnie Fearer
Milestones in our personal lives are often just that – “personal.” Some milestones, however, impact history in indelible ways. For our profile this issue we have chosen Susan B. Anthony-- because her milestones became “our” milestones as a country.
Susan B. Anthony was born in 1820, near Adams, Massachusetts, just as the industrial revolution was beginning in America. Her parents, Daniel and Lucy, owned a cotton mill when cotton cloth became a must-have item. As demand for cloth steadily grew, Daniel Anthony found his business decisions colliding with his deeply held Quaker values, as it became known that much of the cotton grown and shipped to mills came from slave labor. He was alarmed by the westward expansion of slavery, and Susan B. Anthony often heard her father say he did everything he could to avoid purchasing cotton raised on such slave plantations. This early understanding of the horrors of slavery stayed with Susan throughout her life.
Her own deepening faith and involvement in the Quaker church helped shape Susan B. Anthony’s life trajectory. A mainstay of Quaker values was the belief in “the equality of all people before God.” Education was emphasized for both boys and girls--something unusual for the time--and Anthony pursued secondary studies in algebra, literature, chemistry, philosophy, physiology, and astronomy.
In 1845, the Anthony family moved to Rochester, New York, where they became active in the anti-slavery movement. Their home served as a meetinghouse almost every Sunday, and attendees included famous abolitionists such as Frederick Douglass and William Lloyd Garrison.
By her mid-thirties Susan B. Anthony had become known as a compelling orator in her fight against slavery, infuriating many within the slaveholding community to the extent that she was “burned” in effigy on the streets of Syracuse, New York.
While continuing her work in the abolitionist movement, in 1848 Anthony began work as a teacher in New York and got involved in the teacher’s union. Through this, she discovered that male teachers received a monthly salary of $10, while their female colleagues were paid only $2.50. This experience, along with her previous abolition activism and Quaker values, inspired her dedication to women’s equal rights. She would go on to become greatly involved in the suffrage movement – fighting for women’s right to vote.
In 1851, she met Elizabeth Cady Stanton, who was known for organizing the first woman's rights convention (the Seneca Falls Convention), and they formed a friendship and partnership that lasted the rest of their lives. Stanton had seven children, so she stayed behind the scenes, writing and organizing, while Anthony (who was single), did most of the public speaking and traveling. Their efforts were tireless, Read more about it here.
Coinciding with their work on the suffrage movement, in 1863 Anthony, Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucy Stone formed the Women’s Loyal National League to press for a Constitutional amendment to abolish slavery. This goal was finally realized with the ratification of the Thirteenth Amendment in 1865. This was a milestone that Susan B. Anthony was able to celebrate in her lifetime. However, after fifty years of her life devoted to fighting for a woman’s right to vote, she never experienced that milestone. Susan B. Anthony died in 1906, thirteen years before the 19th Amendment, allowing women to vote, was passed.
“It was we, the people; not we, the white male citizens; nor yet we, the male citizens; but we, the whole people, who formed the Union. And we formed it, not to give the blessings of liberty, but to secure them; not to the half of ourselves and the half of our posterity, but to the whole people - women as well as men. And it is a downright mockery to talk to women of their enjoyment of the blessings of liberty while they are denied the use of the only means of securing them provided by this democratic-republican government - the ballot.” (Susan B. Anthony, 1873)

ESSAY
Reflecting on our Milestones
Cultivare Team Members
For our Essay each month we normally like to share a special article we’ve found particularly meaningful or provocative. On occasion we spotlight the thoughts of one of our team members. This month, we wanted to give four of our team members the opportunity to write on milestones. You'll read about the events many of us want for ourselves (marriage) and those we don't (loss), but in almost all cases, life events that are unexpected or seemingly out of order. The binding hope is that God's pacing of our lives is mysterious, sometimes painful, but eventually good.
Ben Hunter:
I graduated from the University of Notre Dame with an unsettling disorientation, and a rather rich blend of failures and accomplishments. In crossing the finish line at Notre Dame, I carried plenty of injuries along with me but left too many milestones, on and off the football field, unvanquished.
I could never have imagined that after nearly two decades I would be back in Notre Dame Stadium-- this time in the press box-- celebrating my wedding rehearsal dinner the night before I would marry Ruth. While I had plenty of stories from the football team, Ruth had a storied basketball career at Notre Dame, and then a professional career to match.
By the time Ruth and I were reintroduced, I had become rather dubious about my getting married. As a student at Notre Dame, I would have been pleased as punch to marry someone like Ruth – I had never thought I would marry Ruth. It was a treasured Domer (ND grad) friend that introduced us, and at our wedding the pews, ushers, and wedding party were filled with Domers. Through our marriage, GOD united Ruth and me. Through HIS grace upon grace, GOD also used this most important milestone of my life to redeem and unite all things in HIM (Ephesians 1:7-10)).
***
Olivia Mather:
My dad was in the Navy, so we moved a lot when I was a child—we moved ten times by the time I was ten years old. These moves were always across state lines, and in one case, an international boundary. I adjusted well, but my mom says that when I was about three, I asked her about Heaven: “Is Heaven the last move?”
One of the blessings I’ve received from my childhood is the ability to remember milestones. Not developmental milestones like walking and talking, but who my friends were at what age, having the chicken pox, and what year it was when it snowed enough to make a tiny snowman in Pensacola, Florida. It’s the moves, each one a new milestone, that marked time for me and connected events with places and ages.
In a way, my three-year-old self was right; there is indeed a last “move” in life, though we can’t predict how long it will be before we arrive. None of us knows the nature of the events between now and then: the wonders, the failures, the losses, the gains. The uncertainty of life as we experience it in real time is tempered by the certainty that there WILL be vistas of meaning, even if it takes our passing those points in order to appreciate them.

Eugene Kim:
Sons bury their fathers as a final rite of passage into adulthood, but I lost my father to cancer when I was sixteen. Most graduates live on their own once they’ve completed formal education and are gainfully employed; I started living in my friend’s garage at seventeen. By eighteen, I was financially independent from my mother, and by the time I turned twenty, I had saved enough to buy her a car.
I finished college in five years, married my first love after dating her for seven, and was commissioned by the founder of the Vineyard Movement to start a house church in West LA as a graduate student. It took me six years to finish my graduate degree. During that time, we bought a house to run an educational center for homeless children and mothers, and my two children shared their table, studied side-by-side, and played with their homeless peers.
Milestones are evenly placed markers that determine how long we’ve walked, how much we’ve lived, how far we have come. What do we make then of the milestones that are out of the expected sequence or are unevenly spaced apart? There must be some unfathomable gravitational pull that has distorted the time and space around me, like a star or a black hole, that has scrambled my navigational compass and put me on this road less traveled. Even when the ground below me shifts or when I must wait years for an answer or when the way ahead remains dimly lit, I remain rooted to my foundational center of gravity, Petra, that acts invisibly upon and keeps me milestone to milestone.

Duane Grobman:
I have long celebrated a major milestone in my life, namely God’s healing in my body from an advanced stage of cancer when I was 27. Forty years later, I still mark November 27 as the day my oncologist spoke the words I longed to hear: “Your cancer is in remission!” That date has become a memorable milestone that I mark each year with a profound sense of gratitude.
The year 1517 didn’t mean much to me till married friends of mine, Thomas and Amy, brought it to my attention in 2012. They said, “Do you realize that in just five years (2017) it will be 500 years since Martin Luther nailed his 95 Theses to the door of the Wittenberg Church?” As history attests, that act set in motion events that would later be known as the Protestant Reformation. I thought, Wow! That is truly a major milestone in the history of Christianity. How might I engage with such a milestone?
Thomas, who is Protestant, and Amy, who is Catholic, have built a beautiful and strong marriage. But the historic division of their respective faith traditions has been marked by pain upon pain, including separation, misunderstanding, and harsh judgment. Thomas and Amy’s vision was to organize a prayer gathering in Wittenberg to mark the milestone of 500 years by gathering Protestant and Catholics together to pray for the unity of the church. It was my privilege to join them in organizing the event with the hopes of healing God’s people, Protestant and Catholics alike, thereby ushering in a new chapter of love and understanding and unity as Jesus outlined in John 17. Now, seven years later, I mark October 31 as a milestone day to continue to pray for the healing of the church that all may be one.
BOOKS
Each month we recommend a book (or two) focused on our theme
NON-FICTION
The Critical Journey:
Stages in the Life of Faith
By Janet O. Hagberg & Robert A. Guelich
The Critical Journey, at its core, is a description of the spiritual journey: our response to our faith in God with the resulting changes that follow. In this book, authors Janet O. Hagberg and Robert A. Guelich address the following issues: the struggle to find meaning and wholeness, the crisis of values and identity at mid-life, the quest for self-actualization, the healing of early religious experiences, and questions about the spiritual journey. Their goal is to help us understand where we are on our individual faith journeys and to appreciate where others are in theirs.
FICTION
The Kristin Lavransdatter Trilogy
by Sigrid Undset
Set against the richly detailed tapestry of Norway during the fourteenth-century, the Kristin Lavransdatter trilogy is more than a journey into the past. Author Sigrid Undset's own life—her familiarity with Norse sagas, folklore and a wide range of medieval literature, her experiences as a daughter, wife, and mother – as well as her deep religious faith—profoundly influenced her writing. The three books comprising the trilogy (The Wreath, The Mistress of Husaby, The Cross), take us with Kristin through the milestones of what it means to be human. We journey with her through childhood, grieving the loss of her parents, falling in love, the tumult of a challenging marriage, raising children and finally, growing old and facing death.
Interestingly, at the time of its writing, Undset’s homeland, Norway, was experiencing milestones of its own. Granted independence in 1905 after five hundred years of foreign domination, Norway was eager to reclaim its national history and culture. Kristin Lavransdatter became a touchstone for Undset's contemporaries and continues to be widely read by Norwegians today. In the more than 75 years since it was first published, it has also become a favorite throughout the world.

In this article from the Fuller Youth Institute, author Steven Johnson shares ideas for creating rhythms for marking rites of passages
3. WHAT DOES EBENEZER MEAN IN THE BIBLE? WHAT IS IT USED FOR?
In this article from Christianity Today, author Chad Napier shares that the stone of Ebenezer should signify to us that trusting in anything or anyone short of Christ is a precursor to failure.
4. HERE I RAISE BY EBENEZER: THE INSPIRATION BEHIND THE HYMN COME THOU FOUNT
In Hebrew, Ebenezer means “stone of help.” Samuel wanted the people to remember, not just for a few days, but for years, for decades, for generations, how God had come to the rescue of his people when they humbled themselves before him.
5. PRAYER
Gracious God,
In this lifetime, we face a great many milestones. Some happy. Some sad. Many both at once.
Help us to navigate the fullness of both our joys and our sorrows for the many transitions we undergo in our lives, especially when the emotional weight of it all at times feels too overwhelming to name and too heavy to carry.
For both good endings and bad, may we show grace to ourselves and to others. Help us to look forward with hope to the future, knowing always that you are with us.
Give us the strength to step boldly into the unknown and the faith to trust you in the process.
Give us the courage to be honest with ourselves and with others about our limits. When we walk forward onto a new path, may we acknowledge when we need help and be vulnerable enough to ask for it.
We thank you for the friends and family you place along the road of our life’s journey. May we receive their love and friendship with open arms, knowing that all the love we give and receive in this world comes from you.
When our loved ones are taken from us or are simply no longer present, help us to be open to taking the risk to love again. Help us to receive the possibility of someone new stepping into our lives, as well as to be ever mindful of those who remain through thick and thin.
May we not overlook the wise counsel and encouragement of those steadfast saints who have been our faithful guideposts all along the way. For the many milestones in this lifetime, help us to walk onward through them all. And when we stumble, help us get back up again.
For the sake of our Savior Jesus Christ, the one who grieves the sorrows of this life with us and celebrates our joys with us, too.
AMEN.
(Prayer written by Katy Shevel)
ROOTED
But blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord,
whose confidence is in him.
They will be like a tree planted by the water
that sends out its roots by the stream.
It does not fear when heat comes;
its leaves are always green.
It has no worries in a year of drought
and never fails to bear fruit.
(Jeremiah 17:7-8 NIV)
