Message: “Playing Nicely” from Rev. Kikanza Nuri-Robbins

Why is shared leadership so difficult? Nurturing healthy relationships in a polarized environment is a challenge. While there are good reasons for playing nicely together, it is not always easy to do. Even when you are in charge, you can't always get what you want. Let's explore some assumptions that create barriers and approaches for surmounting some of the barriers to playing nicely.

From Monthly: "Story"

Our spiritual theme for congregational exploration this month is Story. Stories are how we make meaning of existence and pass that meaning on to others. We all have stories that we tell ourselves – some that are real and some that we imagine to be real – about ourselves, our families, our relationships, our church community, our society, and even our place in the universe.
