In this episode of Peace of the City, we welcome Dr. Ashley Moyse, Assistant Professor of Medical Ethics, McDonald Scholar, and Director of the Columbia Character Cooperatives. Drawing from his work at Columbia’s medical school and his research at Oxford, Dr. Moyse reflects on the view from the 14th floor—where the city’s pain becomes quiet, abstract, and dangerously distant.
Preaching on Revelation and the Gospel of John, he reminds us that God's dwelling is not above but among us. This is no promise of escape, but a call to costly presence: to see, to touch, to stay near enough to wipe away tears. With sharp theological insight and deep pastoral care, Dr. Moyse challenges us to love not from a safe height, but from the ground—with fidelity, nearness, and grief-soaked grace.
A sermon for anyone wrestling with how to live—and love—in proximity to suffering.
