Building Community Through Awareness of Our Common Needs
Rev. Ed will give a sermon entitled, “Building Community Through Awareness of Our Common Needs”
There are many ways people create walls to put between one another. Awareness of our basic human needs is one way to dissolve those walls. One of the greatest ways of developing deeper bonds of community is by keeping the universal human needs –such as our needs for respect, dignity, and compassion – at the forefront of minds in our relationships with others. It is a very simple notion with far reaching results. Sunday I will share some experiences that helped to make me aware of the wisdom of letting our words and deeds be guided by understanding that our own deepest needs are shared by all we encounter in our daily lives.
