The sermon this Sunday will be a reflection on the role of parents. Our task as parents is to help prepare our children to stand on their own two feet. Our task as parents is to help our children learn to think for themselves, to make their own decisions, hopefully without loading them down with too much of our own baggage. Because the minute they are born, we begin turning loose of them. This is both the good news and the bad news about having children. They grow up! Holding on and letting go. Somehow we must manage to do both. Rev. John Johnson will be our speaker.

In a hypernormalized world, we recognize the artificiality of the system, yet continue to operate within it because the alternative – stepping outside of what we know and what others believe – demands too much faith amidst uncertainty. External pressures aside, does our own reluctance to move into the unknown mean that we are doomed to a life of “playing along?” Join Rev. Renée in this philosophical deep dive.

Kate Kowalski joins us this week to offer reflections inspired by themes from the book, How We Learn To Be Brave, by Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde, Episcopal Bishop of Washington. We will explore how decisive moments in our lives can offer an opportunity to act with courage. Kate will reflect on bravery as a learned practice and consider how courage is not the absence of fear, but a commitment to our true selves, our beliefs, and our values.

Have you ever received advice that you didn’t want? How do you know if you’re truly being helpful when you try to help someone? This service tells the story of Motke the fish peddler, who was helped a little too much by his friends. The story, based on Simms Taback’s version of a Jewish folktale, leads to an exploration of the Buddhist concept of “right speech,“ in which we ask what we can do, in our congregation, to communicate in better and healthier ways.
