What Our Tales Tell About Us
July 20, 2025 | 10:00 am - 11:00 am

SUMMER SCHEDULE: One service only at 10:00 AM
Today’s Topic:
In families and faiths, nations and civilizations, the stories we tell each other – and ourselves – shape the lives we experience, and the worlds we can envision. In this service, we will explore the theme of story itself – both its power, and its peril.
