The Other Shoe

Sometimes good moments come at bad times. Sometimes not being perfect is the perfect thing to do. Join Rev. Amy Petrie Shaw for this look at living a good life in the bad moments

Learning to Lament

“Sometimes it hurts so badly I must cry out loud.” Those are words from the song “Suite: Judy Blue Eyes”, and they are absolutely true. Sometimes we hurt too badly to keep it all inside, and lamentation can help. So what’s lamentation?

We Shall Not Be Moved

Let’s talk about loving ourselves and our world, when so many want us to hate. How do we plant our roots and declare “I shall not be moved”?

Saying I’m Sorry

What happens once you’ve said you are sorry? Can things ever return to the way they were? Can you find your way back into welcome and make things all okay again? And what about forgiveness? Do we have to forgive?

We Who Believe in Freedom

Dr. King believed that one day the glory would come, and we would have a world of peace and freedom for all people. For those who believe in freedom, what does that dream look like today?

Comfortably Numb

There can be a surfeit even of horror. What do we do when we expect a break which never comes? How do we defend against insidious numbness to the problems of the world?

One Voice was Heard

Today we are talking about the small streams that wear away the stones. We’re talking about the individual bricks that become a wall, and the slender twigs that become an unbreakable bundle.

We are talking about the power of we, and the strength that one voice can have. Join us!
