Sunday November 1st , Service Talk with:
Rev. Christie Hardwick
This week our Guest Speaker is the fabulous Christie Hardwick. Her talk title is "Radical Accountability and a Way Forward". Christie writes; "The times we are in are challenging to our hearts and minds. What if we first look at our own contributions before seeking solutions elsewhere? What if our activism is grounded in a shared fallible humanity where we center in compassion rather than righteousness? I share my journey where at first I felt the despair of failure then walked through the dark night to find a way forward."
"Taking inventory in your own life empowers rather than shames. Being honest and clear about where you are allows you to design a greater “to be”. Forgiveness is for yourself and for Beloved Community. I am continually enamored with the idea of Dr. Kings “beloved community. “ I cherish the idea that we all hold each other up as brother and sister regardless of our race, class, gender, orientation or any other human construct. It takes work to build beloved community and its beyond political action and social reform - it's devotion to love unconditional. How can we be more intentional architects? How can we be even more inclusive?"
Our musical inspiration this week is Tim Gomes
