The Gathering

In cooking there is a fancy word for the beginning of a great dish, mirepoix. The idea is that no matter how sophisticated the final product is, the base for every flavor in the dish is built on extremely simple ingredients. What may be a surprise, though, is that a similar truth exists in our faith. In our tradition, there are three strikingly simple rules, which like the mirepoix of a great dish, make up the start of God’s recipe for life. Join us as we devote a week to each rule, its origins in scripture, and how God can use it to add flavor to our lives.

From the day we are born we are told who we should be. We compare ourselves to others, conform to fit in, and project only the best parts of who we are. All of this keeps us from our true identity. When we learn to love ourselves as God loves us we begin to see that God created us to be unique. We invite you to join us for a series dedicated to discovering how to Be Yourself.
