SUNDAY SERVICE 

Onsite and Online ~  10 am 

Reverend Kikanza Nuri-Robins & Ayanna Gaines

Is It Binary, Or Not?

Life is complicated, and sometimes confusing. When we try to oversimplify things, we lose the nuances and subtleties that often make the biggest differences. In the Western World, we are taught to think rationally, logically and in a binary fashion. Often, however, the answer to the question, is it this or is it that, is yes. Come and reflect on the value of resting in ambiguity. What might we learn from the Paradoxes of the East?
