Wisdom Walk: Creating Peace & Balance Rev. Dr. Sage Bennet

 
How can we participate in the "beloved community," a term Martin Luther King used to describe a world unspoiled by racial or religious prejudice? In this session we will weave the wisdom of spiritual practices from Hinduism, Buddhism, Islam, Judaism, Christianity, Taoism, Native American Spirituality, and New Thought through music, images, and sacred texts. Participants will be invited Into small groups--wisdom circles--to explore, and share from their hearts, about interfaith topics that affect our lives, communities, and the world: • What are our own experiences of healing wounds, prejudice, and misunderstandings about our own and other faith traditions and how can we help others heal? • What do we appreciate about our own and other faith traditions and how can we encourage interfaith understanding in our own and global communities? • What do people of spirit and faith share, as a human family, that might unify our value (and values) in ways that could be applied in service to the very real challenges we face together?
