The Resurrected Life; Guest Speaker Rev. Samantha Evans-Khek
So much of our rhetoric around the resurrection of Jesus of Nazareth revolves around “correct belief” or orthodoxy, but perhaps we should be talking about orthopraxy, or “correct praxis.” How we live out the resurrection is so much more important than what we believe about resurrection. During this service, we will explore how to be a “resurrection people,” who boldly proclaim that another way is possible. We don’t have to live in fear and be led through violence and coercion. We can be the people, guided by Love and cooperation, who commit to building a better world here and now.
Come learn about Sarah Emma Edmonds, a woman who served in the U.S. Army during the Civil War as a nurse, mail carrier, soldier and spy. This extraordinary woman’s life is an inspiration for breaking barriers in our world today.
Join us for a Service Sunday. We'll gather in Adams Hall to pack safe birth kits for Global Health Services to distribute around the world. Join us for this fun and lifesaving activity that all ages can participate in!
During today’s service, we’ll gather in discussion groups to explore the theme of transitions. Through guided conversation, we’ll consider how we respond to change, reflect on our own experiences, and gain insight from the diverse ways others navigate transition.
