SUMMARY:Sharing Leadership in UCC Community
DESCRIPTION:Some mistakenly believe that United Church of Christ faith communities resist leadership by design. The truth is that UCC polity calls on communities to share leadership\, voluntarily and covenantally. Sharing leadership is so countercultural\, it’s easy to misunderstand. \nJoin Dean Sarah B. Drummond of Andover Newton Seminary at Yale Divinity School and Rev. Dr. Chris S. Davies for an energizing and timely conversation about Drummond’s new book from the Pilgrim Press\, Sharing Leadership: A United Church of Christ Way of Being In-Community. \nDavies and Drummond will reflect on questions like\, “How can faith communities share leadership well?” and\, “How can the UCC help its members to carry the life-giving practices of sharing leadership into their families\, communities\, and workplaces?” \n*Please note this session is pre-recorded.

SUMMARY:Accessible to All Churches and Disabilities Justice
DESCRIPTION:The United Church of Christ adopted the Accessible to All (A2A) covenant as a denomination in 2005 as part of our commitment to disabilities justice. Barriers to accessibility are both physical and attitudinal. Disability justice intersects with the UCC’s commitments to racial\, economic\, gender\, sexual identies\, just peace\, and environmental justice. Join representatives of the UCC Disabilities Ministries Board for practical resources for what UCC members and congregations can do to create a more just world for all. \nThis webinar is part of a special series of Thursdays for the Soul webinars focused on twelve Just World Covenant programs in the United Church of Christ. One the third Thursday of each month\, one of these programs will be featured. Learn more at: www.ucc.org/just_world_covenants.

SUMMARY:Moving Through Life With Embodied Grace
DESCRIPTION:How do we connect the inspired mind of Christ to the often tired Body of Christ? What spiritual practices allow us to tap into the “fount of every blessing” even as we engage the urgencies of our time? \nJoin Matt Carriker\, the founding pastor of Agape Spiritual Community UCC in Waltham\, Massachusetts and Gabrielle Chavez\, organizing pastor of Christ the Healer UCC centered in the Portland Oregon metro area as we explore some cutting edge work at the intersection of activism and contemplation coming out of two newer congregations. \nAs part of the conversation\, there will be an offering of understanding and practice that evolved from over a generation of experience and experimentation to quickly access embodied grace\, the state of being Jesus called “heaven on earth”.
