SUMMARY:The Stories We Tell Ourselves
DESCRIPTION:With Gregg Levoy\, author & speaker\nHands-on workshop in person and on Zoom\n$30 registration fee\nRegister at: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/the-stories-we-tell-ourselves-tickets-381871035547 \nGregg is also our guest speaker for the Sunday Service @ 10:00 – 11:00 \nWe’re storytelling animals\, and we create stories to help us make sense of life and give us a framework for our decisions\, whether personal\, professional or spiritual. \nBut those stories can sometimes turn on us—especially the negative ones—and become self-limiting when they come up against life’s primary goal: Grow. And when they become lies of identity—I am what I do\, I am what I have\, I am what other people think of me. \nStories become opinions become beliefs become behaviors. We don’t just tell stories—they tell us. And until the core perceptions at the heart of our stories are confronted\, and perhaps deconstructed or updated\, the behavior that grows out of them won’t change. \nThis presentation—part service talk and part hands-on workshop—is designed to help you identify and reconsider the stories you tell yourself. We’ll work to separate fact from fiction\, emphasize the positive in our stories\, and understand that they don’t keep replaying themselves to torment us but to offer us opportunities to heal and grow. The soul’s agenda is not punishment but healing.

SUMMARY:Unpacking Race and Racism: Becoming White Allies 2.0
DESCRIPTION:Are you a white person who is disturbed by matters of race and racism in the United States? Being disturbed is a good thing. It means your intellect recognizes injustice and unfairness and your heart is feeling the resulting pain. Psychology tells us that the most effective means of handling pain is to move into it and through it. \nThe AntiRacism Institute offers a safe and supportive way for you to deal with the injustice of racism. Sitting at the feet of a Black man\, Emmanuel Acho\, author of Uncomfortable Conversations With a Black Man\, a trained facilitator will guide you through uncomfortable conversations as you learn what you didn’t know you didn’t know. You’ll progress through a proven path of racial awareness\, racial literacy\, and racial action. Graduates from “Unpacking 2.0” engage in a racial equity project (your own or with a group) equipped with the core competencies of a white ally.  You’ll find YOUR answer to the question … \n“As a white person\, what can I DO?” \nThis Transformative Program Begins the Week of April 24th! \nIn partnership with The AntiRacism Institute\n7 X 90-minute sessions\nMeet weekly in a virtual pod (small group of 8)\nMultiple days and times to choose from\nWeek of April 24th to Week of June 5th \nUse the link below to register now. Seats are limited. \nhttps://rebrand.ly/unpacking-racism-M0424-22
