Where Work and Play Converge
Reverend Ruth Barnhart notes, “God has a sense of humor. This is a line I hear frequently that always gives me pause.

How do we relate to playfulness as a quality of our true selves?”

The Holiness of Wholeness
As Silvia Gilmour observes, “As I was soul-searching my perception of unity, I found that I believe it means harmonious wholeness. Whether thinking of it in our own individual lives; in community with everyone and everything- everywhere, honoring life in all its diversity; as well as our innate connection with Spirit, I am convinced that true unity is a sacred state of being unbroken. We’ll be looking at all three of those notions conceptually, interspersed with poetry to bolster my conviction of the holiness of wholeness.”
