Thoughts and Practices for Living in Chaotic and Anxious Times
God, Grant Me the Serenity. . . .

 
As a Pastor, I talk to lots and lots of people who feel anxious, fearful, overwhelmed, depressed, angry, despairing, hopeless and exhausted in response to the 24-hour news cycle that constantly comes at us through our screens, audio, print and social media.
 
The triggers for these emotions seem endless - the latest decisions, actions, and rhetoric coming out of Washington, continual bad news about climate change, wars and conflict around the globe, the economy and rising cost of living, immigration, human sexuality, our intractable political divisions, rising authoritarianism across the world - the list goes on.
 
Living in this anxious state is taking a toll on us - our mental, emotional, spiritual, and even physical health is being put in jeopardy when we live in this stressful place. What can we do?
 
If the feeling states listed above resonate with you, please join us for discussions on tried-and-true spiritual principles and practices that can lead us to a place of inner peace and groundedness, and can lead us toward wise, right, and appropriate action.
