6/2/24 Renewal: Stop Resisting a Rest

Led by Rev. Dr. Kharma Amos
Renewal is the theme of this final month of our church year, and a fitting focus for our reflections as we enter summer. We will draw upon the wisdom of Tricia Hersey and other BIPOC leaders who know that intentional, disciplined rest is a foundation not only for personal renewal but also for our shared hopes of re-creating a more just and equitable world. Many of us long for renewal, but have not yet found ways to extricate ourselves from habits that consistently leave us exhausted. Too many of us are “resisting a rest” in ways that limit our freedom and joy. Let’s consider a different approach.
