20260503 Fear & Prophetic Possibility
Sunday Reflection with Rev. Aaron Payson @ The Unitarian Uni... by Rev. Aaron R. Payson
Episode notes
This week we will explore the tension between fear and the call to transformation through the intertwined lenses of the Biblical story of Jonah and Abraham Maslow’s concept of the “Jonah Complex.”
Jonah’s flight from divine purpose mirrors the human tendency to shrink from our highest potential—the fear of greatness, creativity, and responsibility that Maslow described as the Jonah Complex. The service invites reflection on how fear can both protect and imprison us, and how prophetic possibility emerges when we confront that fear with courage and compassion.
