Nothing Is Wasted
Special Music featuring the Joyful Noise Choir
Every morning, Robin Wall Kimmerer's father poured the first cup of coffee into the ground. Not wasted; offered. This week we explore gratitude not as a feeling we manufacture on command, but as the recognition of something already true: we live inside a generous universe that gives continuously. And nothing; not a moment, not a loss, not a single ordinary day; is ever finally wasted.

Everything Breathes
Special Music with Jenn Erickson
The tree outside your window is breathing right now; taking in what you exhale, releasing what you need. This week we explore what it means to live inside a world that is genuinely, literally alive; and what changes when we stop treating the living world as a backdrop and start recognizing it as community.

Sacred Exchange
Special Music featuring Sophia Denning Campbell
Take only what you need. Use everything you take. Give something back. Kimmerer calls this the Honorable Harvest; an ancient set of guidelines for living in right relationship with the life that sustains us. This week we ask what it looks like to practice that kind of reciprocity not just with the natural world, but in our relationships, our work, and the way we spend the one life we've been given.

Braiding the Strands
Special Music featuring Doreen Poreba
A braid needs three strands. One alone won't hold anything. In the final session of The Giving World series, we look at what it means to weave our own braid; the wisdom we've inherited, the truths we've discovered, and the person we're still becoming. This week we find out what we're made of, and what we're making.

Prayer from our Burning Bowl Service 2023
Prayer of the Chalice
Spirit, I lift my whole being to you, an empty vessel, free of ego.
I embrace my emptiness and allow you to fill me with your
Divine Light, Life, and Love. I let these
sacred blessings radiate through me,
and overflow the chalice of my
heart into the hearts of all
those I encounter today,
revealing to them
the beauty of
divine joy,
divine
wholeness,
and
the
serenity
of divine peace.
