| A Community Moving Through Challenge |
|
Anna Sontag Sunday, 13 March 2011 As this church grapples with the truth of its “program” size and its move downtown from our sheltered woodland, what inspiration or advice may we glean from spiritual and transformational sources? Our journeys of individual growth seem to continue whether or not we willingly participate. We like to reason things out, plan, and take charge – but sometimes our plans confound our progress. Thich Nat Hahn reminds us to move from the concepts and ideas in our heads to our attention in the present moment. Such a shift may bring us to a surprise regarding the true nature of our beings. |
