Advent, Week 2 - "Peace"
Rev. Kristin Powell invites us into the second week of Advent by exploring the theme of peace through the parable of the Chinese farmer, whose steady response of "maybe so, maybe not" teaches us to release judgment and trust the divine unfolding we cannot yet see. She draws a beautiful parallel between Mary's receptive surrender and the season of yin - the feminine, inward energy of winter - encouraging us to embrace stillness, silence, and going within rather than resisting what is. Rev. Kristin Powell reminds us that by dropping drama and resistance, we become "no drama teachers" who radiate peace into a world that deeply needs it.
