Description
Questions for the Week:
- Have you ever watched a movie or TV show or played a game that unexpectedly challenged how you understand issues of faith and/or justice? I'm not talking about things that are specifically about faith or religion, rather a piece media or art that was focused on something else but ending up touching you or challenging you in some way.
- Do you have a favorite translation of the Bible? What is it and why?
Special Guest:
Kathy Riley, Associate for Emotional and Spiritual Care, Presbyterian Disaster Assistance
Guest Question:
Do you have any strategies for dealing with anxiety and mental health challenges related to natural or human caused disasters? (ie. hurricanes, gun violence, etc) Are there strategies that are specifically useful for people of faith?
