The World Turned Upside Down
Rev. Susan Frederick-Gray
If it is true that once we think we are wise, we are fools, then, the search for wisdom becomes essential. And one way to keep searching is to intentionally look at our world, our circumstance, our lives, from new perspectives. In this tumultuous time, how do we keep seeking wisdom? And what is its role when we find ourselves in defensive mode?

Mother’s Day Wisdom

Building Arks
Scott Sanders and Mary Craig
In a dangerous time, so the story goes, Noah built an ark to carry pairs of “every living thing” through a worldwide flood, so that once the waters receded, the full diversity of life on Earth might be restored. In our own dangerous time, what arks do we need to protect things vital to human wellbeing and to the health of our planet? What can we learn from nature and history about refuges, sanctuaries, and resilience?
Bio note: Scott Russell Sanders spent his teaching career at Indiana University. He is the author of two dozen books, including, most recently, The Way of Imagination and Small Marvels. He and his wife, Ruth, who sings in the choir, reared two children in Bloomington.
