Human Nature
Worship Leader: Bob Harrington
Human nature can be divided into three aspects, that is, physical, mental and spiritual. The physical nature is strongly believed in and well understood; the mental nature including the emotional often causes us problems but the spiritual nature is not well understood or emphasized as it should be. Understanding the spiritual aspect of out nature would would help to bring healing to the physical and strengthen the mental and emotional natures.
The spiritual aspect could be understood as the most subtle part of our minds and underlies our awareness with a quiet influence. It connects the whole self to the witness within. The witness is the observer of the thoughts and actions. It is the one we refer to when we say this is my body; it is the inferred owner. But we cannot define the witness as each effort we make causes it to retreat from our understanding, so we usually describe it as infinite and beyond thought. Religious traditions often apply the word God to it but it is not God but our true self.
In my talk on June 15 I will expand on these ideas.
For Every Service
About our services
Our Sunday Service meets year-round at 10:45am and is central to our religious life and community. We draw on a variety of sources and traditions, and address themes ranging from social concerns to spiritual growth. Our services have many common elements including music and congregational singing, spoken and silent meditation, the sharing of joys and concerns, and a Time for All Ages for our children.
Services may include a sermon from a guest minister or a member of the congregation, or a presentation from a guest speaker from the larger community. Some services may include discussion and small group activities. There are also a number of intergenerational services each year when all ages can participate together.
Folks are invited to stay for refreshments following the service when they can mingle and get to know one another better.
