This famous Zen koan is a riddle that invites us to examine who we were before we became the conditioned humans we know ourselves to be. We’ll explore how we are shaped by the events of our lives, as well as the identities we adopt in the roles we play in our stories.
Compassion is a core principle in all major religions. Each of the Abrahamic religions (Judaism, Christianity, Islam) have this in common and it is also a core principle of Buddhism. Let’s explore this concept of compassion and contemplate how we may bring more compassion into our lives.

“What Are the Places That Scare You?”
Rev. Tina Cansler Clark
We seem to be swimming in an ocean of anxiety and fear-inducing events these days. What can we learn about ourselves by examining these fears? How do we access our infinite resources when things frighten us? I’m spending lots of time with this work these days.

“From Chaos to Community”
Rev. Dr. Scott Dillard
As we enter life we are thrown into a chaotic unknown that we learn to adapt to. It creates our first Community. As we venture forth and grow we expand those Community, maybe leave it, find new ones. Such is also our religious journey. We will explore this development of our spiritual journey in this sermon.

Rev. E. Arlen Goff
Have you ever engaged in a mental review of the decisions you’ve made in life? Have you ever engaged in an intellectual game of “What if?” We’ll take a few moments this Sunday to think about “the road(s) not taken.”
