January 20, 2019 – Don’t Take Anything Personally
Rev. Kristin Powell explores the second of Don Miguel Ruiz's Four Agreements - don't take anything personally - offering practical wisdom for releasing the emotional poison that comes from defining ourselves by others' opinions or our own limiting beliefs. Drawing on the story of Joseph from Hebrew scripture and the legacy of Martin Luther King Jr., Rev. Kristin Powell invites us to alchemize difficult experiences by taking them universally rather than personally, trusting that God means it for good. She encourages us to remember that neither blame nor praise defines us, and that our worth is intrinsic to our nature as spiritual beings.
