This week, as we meditate on James 3:1-12 we will reflect on the power of words and public debate, I invite you to read my latest Blog Post entitled A Kinder, More Compassionate Community.

"As one of the six pastors who signed a letter in the Daily Record, July 8, 2015, entitled "Clergy Support Ruling on Gay Marriage," I was deeply saddened by some of the responses in the Letters to the Editor of the Daily Record. Many of the letters became deeply personal in their attack, especially against LGBTQ people. I think it is important for us, as part of the larger Wooster/Wayne County community, to reflect on this public debate as it asks the fundamental question of who we as a community aspire to be as a people." Click here to continue reading.

Please feel free to post a comment and help us as a community to grow in kindness that evokes compassion and gives expression to the beloved community.
