“Practice Makes...”
~ Rev. Ashley DeTar Birt
Rev. DeTar Birt will be preaching on a quote from adrienne maree brown's Emergent Strategy (see below) and it will be about how we can practice generosity and vulnerability. The title is "Practice Makes...". Here's the reading:
"Do you already know that your existence--who and how you are--is in and of itself a contribution to the people and place around you? Not after or because you do some particular thing, but simply the miracle of your life. And that the people around you, and the place(s), have contributions as well? Do you understand that your quality of life and your survival are tied to how authentic and generous the connections are between you and the people and place you live with and in?
Are you actively practicing generosity and vulnerability in order to make the connections between you and others clear, open, available, durable? Generosity here means giving of what you have without strings or expectations attached. Vulnerability means showing your needs."
-adrienne maree brown, Emergent Strategy: Shaping Change, Changing Worlds
