Part 1: Passing the Peace

from The Gathering Hosted by Rev. Matt Miofsky

Churches have a lot of rituals that often leave people wondering...why do we do that? To new people, church can feel confusing, ritualistic, or just plain weird. And, if you’ve been coming for a while, it can be automatic, mindless, and you may even take it for granted. In this series, we will uncover some of the history, meaning and beauty behind those rituals you experience each Sunday. Join us as we talk about why we take communion, what baptism symbolizes, and what the heck we’re doing when we shake hands with strangers, as we answer the age old question, Why Do We Do That?
