Is it Faithful?

In the early months of her retirement following two decades of parish ministry, Rev. Paige Getty had been wrestling with the question of what it means to be productive in this chapter of her life. A wise guide offered an alternative, out of his Quaker tradition, suggesting that she ask instead, "Is it faithful?". In this service, Paige will reflect on what it means to be faithful, regardless of productivity, and she'll consider how we might use this question as a guide in our decision-making as individuals and faith communities, especially as we strive to embody resilience in the face of authoritarianism and oppression.
