Adventures In Spirituality is our annual fall study series.
Incorporating Sunday messages and SpiritGroups centered around a common book, we study and explore together, deepening our spiritual practices and building community. We celebrate the conclusion of the series with our HarvestFest FUNdraiser event combining food, fun and joy!

This year, we are pleased to study the book "The Deepest Acceptance" by Jeff Foster.
How can we bring an effortless yes to this moment? How do we stop running from “the mess of life” - our predicaments, our frustrations, even our search for liberation - and start flowing with all of it? In The Deepest Acceptance, Jeff provides readers with a series of insights intended to help strip away that armor and embrace life now, as it is and as you are. "The Deepest Acceptance is the story of a merciful awareness, which offers us the heart's inborn destination we were born to discover. Love is the highest form of acceptance. Judgment is the mechanics of non-acceptance.” - Stephen Levine, author of A Year to Live |

What is a SpiritGroup?
A SpiritGroup is a gathering of no more than 12 people who meet at a home or other location outside of Sunday service to explore together, deepen spiritual practice, and build community through focusing on a theme or common interest. SpiritGroup sign-ups launch three times per year, plus we offer a few ongoing groups so you can find a day, time, and group that works for you. Gatherings include socializing, sharing food, and 90 minutes of sacred time for meditation and discussion. Each cycle culminates with a service project and a group social.
