Rev. Karon Sandberg: Why Do We Need Heroes?
10 AM - 11 AM

• Date: October 2, 2022

Meeting ID: 990 0992 0072 Passcode: 100675 Why Do We Need Heroes?- Rev. Karon Sandberg So often when we think of courage we think about heroic people who step up and do something extraordinary. Movies show us all kinds of superheroes who always save the day. Our news feeds show us ordinary folks who step up in times of tragedy. In contrast, we rarely see ourselves in this role. Let's admit it, life has been pretty out of control lately. What if we saw how heroic it was to just get out of bed some days or work a job we no longer enjoy or love someone who is challenging to love? Join us as we look at why heroes are so appealing and how we might see our own super powers within our daily lives.

You are welcome to bring donations of cash or a check towards the postage.
