The 2011 Lenten Series
Lenten Series
Beginning March 14th at 7:30
Lent is a time in which we are called to "give up" something to allow room for something else to emerge in our lives.
Taking our cue from William Ellery Channing's "I Call That Mind Free" (#592 in the gray hymnal), the Lenten series will propose that we consider giving up three obstacles to the free mind, and see what kind of thinking emerges in their place. The series will involve some readings, personal and small group reflections, journaling and prayer.
March 14: I call that mind free...which does not content itself with a passive or hereditary faith...(Outworn and merely conventional opinions)
March 28: I call that mind free... which is not framed by outward circumstances.... (the blinders caused by social status or position)
April 4: I call that mind free...which resists the bondage of habit.... (mental compulsions, distortions and misperceptions.)
