Beyond the Threshold | Rev. Laura Randall

Continuing the theme of thresholds, in this service we imagined what lies beyond the current liminal space in which we’re living. We engaged with these questions: What is our vision for the future? How does this liminal time inform that vision? What do we want to be different?
