Gloria will examine some of the basic reasons people fear change especially in the context of how we accept and respond to racial and cultural diversity.

The Jewish New Year draws us to ancient truths and fresh perspectives on social transformation. Rev. Pat Jobe will have with him copies of his new book, Heart On Wheels, Amazin' Stories From The Life of Tommy Hicks 1954-2017. The book is not only a record of powerful friendship and connections, but it is a tribute to what can happen when people set aside differences to care for a medically fragile clown who refused to let muscular dystrophy define him or anybody else. Come laugh and ponder the possibility of leaving better than you came.  9/2/2018 Service: "Transformation... Who's in Charge?" (Bethany Bert) *Audio Service and Text*9/2/2018 Do we know where we’re going? Does the monarch pupa know what it’s becoming? Is Consciousness a mere witness to, or an active participant in Transformation? An old Cherokee chief was teaching his grandson about life... "A fight is going on inside me," he said to the boy. "It is a terrible fight and it is between two wolves. "One is evil - he is anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, self-doubt, and ego. "The other is good - he is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith. "This same fight is going on inside you - and inside every other person, too." The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather, "Which wolf will win?" The old chief simply replied, "The one you feed." Author Unknown (possibly a Cherokee parable and going back probably at least to the 1950's in print - but un confirmable)
