Grudges

Rev. Michael J S Carter

So, this morning I want to talk to you about some resolutions, some commitments which I guarantee will make a radical difference in my life and your life, if you and I are committed to follow through on them. In fact, what I want to do is to offer to you a way of starting the New Year which could significantly change your life.

Here is what I want to suggest to you: if you will make these two commitments this year, I guarantee you that the start of 2024 could become one of the most significant years in your life. I want to challenge you to make 2 new commitments for this New Year. See you on Sunday!

Music: Bill Altork, voice & guitar; Linda Metzner, piano

Greeters: Marti Saltzman & Andy Reed

The Power of AI

Rev. Michael J S Carter

The year is 2035 and artificial intelligence is everywhere. AI systems run hospitals, operate airlines and even confront each other in the courtroom. Productivity has spiked to unprecedented levels, and countless businesses have grown at lightning speed generating tremendous advances in human progress and well-being.

Science, technology and the free market kick into overdrive, and yet the world is growing more unpredictable and fragile, as terrorists find new ways to menace society with new cyber weapons and people (both blue collar and white collar) are losing their jobs en masse.
