When we met in person our congregation enthusiastically opened our service each Sunday with what was known as the Passing of the Peace or Offering the Peace of Christ to one another. It never dawned on us that we might be able to do that online, but this Sunday we are going to see if it can be done. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. We will be continuing our exploration of the nature of the “Promised Land," looking particularly at the ideas Brumet introduces regarding security and stability. What makes you feel secure and stable (really)? I hope you will join us in this exploration and in our experiment of offering the Peace of Christ to one another. Seeing each of you is such a joy—I look forward to it each week!! With love and blessings, Linda
Questions for this Sunday:
What makes you feel secure? What represents "stability" for you?
This week we are reading Chapter 10 in Finding Yourself in Transition. If you are not reading along, no worries. Join us anyway! Each lesson is a stand-alone lesson!
In the opening paragraph of Chapter 10, Brumet states that "the desire for security and stability is a fundamental human drive." Where do you find security, really? What really makes you feel secure? What does "stability" mean to you?
