2019/10/20 ● The Rev. Jennifer Nordstrom ● Divinity in the Devil's Curve

The lemniscate, or Devil’s Curve, is a polar curve that traces back and forth in a series of loops. In a bonded community, we might feel safe enough to be vulnerable and authentic. In turn, this kind of vulnerability breeds the bonds of trust that build community. Where does individual responsibility lie in this dynamic, and where does the community’s covenant-keeping make space for individual hearts to open? How do we balance the need for strong bonds of trust with an openness to new members in the community? Please join us for this service where we will celebrate Rev. Dena MePhetres’ 10 years of service to our congregation, and explore the lemniscate interplay between trust and openness.
