Awakening love & justice in our lives & in the world.

Upcoming Service: When the Well Is Dry

Sunday, May 24, 11am, in person and on Zoom

Rev. Christe Lunsford

There are seasons when we reach for what has always sustained us — prayer, community, meaning, hope — and come up empty. The practices that once filled us feel hollow. The certainties we relied on have cracked. And the spring rain becomes flood waters.

Every tradition has a name for this. The Psalmist cried it. Rumi’s reed flute wept it. The Buddhist teacher points to it as the ache at the heart of being human.

Rev. Christe will explore: what is the water table beneath the dry season? What holds when our usual sources fail us?

Here Comes the Shame

Most of us have a loved one who has wrestled with addiction, or we have wrestled ourselves. And yet we continue to hide where this medical condition shows up in our lives, letting the shame around addiction isolate us and cut us off from the tools that can bring healing. How can we move away from shame and deepen our capacity for transformative love?
