Worship
Worship and sermons feel to me like a grand conversation celebrating a people's life together. Sunday weaves together sermons, music, stories for all ages, poetry, prayers and meditations. Each of these elements, expressing the worship theme, engages our many ways of thinking about and encountering the world and the sacred. I especially treasure those worship services that are collaborative with people in the congregation I serve.
