Hard Conversations
Hard Conversations is our ongoing series exploring current events and hot-button issues through the lens of faith. Every voice matters. Every perspective teaches us something. This is how we practice loving inclusively: listening across differences, deepening our faith, and growing in understanding of one another.
No debate. No agenda. Just people committed to listening well and loving better. Hard Conversations runs weekly, starting June 21st, at 11:45am EST on Sundays. Join us in person or via Zoom.

Tuesdays With Marc - AM and PM
When Things Fall Apart, From May 26th-June 30th
Tuesdays with Marc will be reading together When Things Fall Apart by Pema Chödrön. It’s a small but deeply wise book about what it means to remain open when life feels uncertain, tender, or undone. Rather than offering quick fixes or easy answers, Pema gently invites us to stop running from our lives and begin meeting them with greater honesty, compassion, and courage. Together, we’ll explore themes like fear, vulnerability, loneliness, hope, and the surprising possibility that the places where we feel most fragile may also become places of awakening and grace.
Tuesdays with Marc is a space to slow down, move from getting here to being here, and listen more deeply—to our lives, to one another, and perhaps to the quiet wisdom moving beneath it all.
Join us: Tuesday Mornings – 7:30 a.m.(Hybrid: Library & Zoom)
Tuesday Evenings – 7:30 p.m.(Online)
