“Respecting Pupil and Teacher”
On this Social Justice Sunday we turn our attention to local issues of education.
Speaker: The Rev. Cathey Edwards
“Disrespect in a Word”
Wordsmith and humorist Mark Twain noted, “The difference between the right word and the almost right word is the difference between lightning and a lightning bug.” Words can divide or unite us. How do we discern what words to use and where?
“Everyday Feminism”
International Women’s Day propels us to look at today’s issues affecting all genders.
“Is Respect Outdated?”
Using this season of Lent, we consider respect as a doorway to engage in a discipline of deep intention and appreciation of our world and our place in it.
