Welcome! Let's dive in.

Hello:
If you are here, it is because you wish to join a conversation about faith, what it means, how do we live it out, and the various questions, doubts, wonderings that we all have.

We do not pretend to have all the answers, but we are very interested in diving deeper with a community of people who are willing to do a few things in this digital discourse:

  • Respect the dignity of every person who enters the conversations: no names, no insults, no complete dismissal of another's viewpoint
  • Follow the Golden Rule: treat fellow participants how you wish to be treated---and let's hold one another accountable to that.
  • Take the needed time to read suggested items or watch suggested videos. Respond with thought and reflection.
  • Respect various backgrounds, experiences, and faith journeys.
So, how does this work?  I'll post a personal reflection, or an article, or a video and we can take the set amount of time (which will be posted with the item) to respond. During that time, I encourage you to check in once a day and see how others may have responded. Perhaps you wish to respond to another person's response....and so the conversation begins.

So, let's try it out. Below you will see a link to a video that is just over 13 minutes.  Watch it. Consider it.  Reflect on it. Add a Scripture. And a comment. We will stay with this conversation for one week (until 11/22)  Let's see where it takes us.
