SUMMARY:Nurture the Soul Special Offering: "Toxic polarization and partisan divides: Holding on to Faith\, Hope\, and Love this election season"
DESCRIPTION:Toxic polarization is a spiritual crisis. In this polarized moment\, powerful social forces push us to think people across our divides are evil\, extreme\, or even subhuman\, causing a breakdown of community and trust. Calling toxic polarization a spiritual crisis means it is a problem that exists not just in society but in our hearts\, harming us from the inside out. This is a question of who we are as people\, not just what kind of democracy or society we’re going to have. The good news is that our faith calls us to a higher standard\, teaches us how to live together in daily life\, and gives us tools to rebuild community and trust. The One America Movement organization supports faith leaders and faith communities as they put their moral and spiritual resources to bear against toxic polarization. In this UCC Our Faith Our Vote (Vote with Love!) webinar\, we will hear from Chandra DeNap Whetstine\, Chief Operating Officer at One America and a UCC Member in Discernment\, along with Abigail Cipparone\, UCC Domestic Policy Advocate\, on the dynamics of toxic polarization and how Jesus calls us to respond. In short\, we will explore together how to hold on to faith\, hope\, and love this election season! Join us!
