Czech dissident and President, Vaclav Havel, wrote in “The Power of the Powerless” that: “Hope is not a prognostication – it’s an orientation of the spirit….” How do we orient our spirit towards hope when there is so much in our world right now that feels hopeless and scary? What resources do we need to draw on to orient our spirit towards hope? In this service, Rev Nica will explore how to turn our internal compass in the direction of hope.
Since manifest destiny our country has raised its people on being rugged individualists. What effect does that have on us and what effect is then created for our society? Anthony & Matt are the mad scientists creating this service about isolation and the power of camaraderie.
