Events Listing

An ancient Sufi prayer says: "Lord, increase my bewilderment." When we look around at our world with wonder, do we find ourselves more lost? Can our sense of wonder help us feel more found? Join Rev Martha for an exploration of holy wonder and the many paths it can lead us down as we engage our bewildering world.

In a recent discussion with his wife Rev. Chris realized that he loves beginnings and forever. He loves the openness and unpredictability and freshness of beginning and the sturdiness and dependability and bedrock of forever. But the real soul work and transforming juice is in the great middle. This service will celebrate the forging power of all that comes between beginnings and forever.
