EPIPHANY WORSHIP SERIES
CHOOSING OUR LIFE
A New Year. New Beginnings. New Goals. New Intentions. A New Resolve.
Our Epiphany Worship Series is about newness, and the importance of the light that WE can bring into this world. We will reflect on our biblical texts in dialogue with a book by Margaret J. Wheatley, Who Do We Choose To Be? Facing Reality, Claiming Leadership, Restoring Sanity

Choosing to Face A Changing Reality
I consolidated all these experiences to the Colonel in one statement: "The Army is the first and only true learning organization I've ever seen." (Twenty-five years later, I've only encountered a few others and none come close.) He smiled, apparently delighted with the comparison. Then he replied quietly, "Well, Meg, we figured that one out a long time ago. It's better to learn than be dead."
