This Sunday, in eleven:eleven, downtown, we continue the series “Here’s How: Big Mind Help for Small-minded Times” as we look at some of the ways we open up to this universal longing to trust and belong, even in the hardest of times.
Bring your questions from this series, your favorite childhood story or fairy tale, and your willingness to get a little messy!
I have a bumper sticker on my ukulele case that reads, “Beware the dangers of stupid people in large groups.” We all think it’s talking about those other people, right?
This Sunday I’m beginning a new series looking at the Gospel of Luke and his post-Resurrection understanding of how Jesus’ life and ideas offered the world a new way of being in relationship to life.
Why is it that in watching, or seeing, someone else’s experience of wonder and awe we are often moved to tears and delight ourselves? Does something connect within us? Something more universally true about our humanity?
I’m feeling pretty exhausted these days! Maybe it’s just the heat of Summer in Texas!
The news of the shooting at Robb Elementary came to me while I was writing the message for this week’s service. At this point, mourning and anger and more mourning is the only thing that makes sense.
I woke up this morning to James Taylor’s version of “The Water is Wide.” It’s always struck me as a tragic Irish love song, sad and mournful. But it occurred to me this morning, as I listened, it is really a song of deep hope and a belief in the redemptive possibilities of love.
I hope you are planning to be with us this Sunday, April 17 at the Historic 512. It’s our first eleven:eleven in-person Easter celebration in three years!
