What if when I light the chalice, you hear an invitation to welcome gratitude for the earth? This week, as I got ready to light the chalice, my family talked about blessings from this planet. Here is my list: [list 3-7 things] And now, with this flame of hope shedding light in your heart: what is...Chalice Lighting | By Karen G.

Barukh atah, Emeth! Blest are you, o Truth. Like the fabled Moses, I too can never claim to have seen you “face to face.” Too often, I’ve hung my own face on you and pretended that I know something I do not. Indeed, my most honest heart confesses that at most, I have only caught the briefest...Poetry | By Mark Belletini | April 27, 2015 | From WorshipWebTagged as: Awe, Connections, Earth, Imagination, Interdependence, Nature, Truth, WonderWorship element

I am part of you, O Truth Unfolding. I am part of you. I am part of a cosmos. I cannot see either its edge or its end. How amazing! I am part of a galaxy of a million, billion stars. They say it’s a pinwheel. How wonderful! I am part of a system of planets that swing around a small parent star.Poetry | By Mark Belletini | April 23, 2015 | From WorshipWebTagged as: 7th Principle (Interconnected Web), Awe, Earth, Gratitude, Nature, Unity, Wholeness, WonderWorship element -
When I look up into the night sky, I am in awe of all that is. There in a far away galaxy A star has died, Yet it is still bright for my eyes to see. And make a wish upon When I walk in the ocean I feel the waves rush across my feet And I feel a certain peace with the world I peer out into the...Poetry | By Jay Wolin | April 22, 2015 | From WorshipWebTagged as: 7th Principle (Interconnected Web), Awe, Earth, Earth Day, Nature, Presence, WonderWorship element

Once upon a time there were two rivers flowing side by side. Both rivers liked to argue about who was the best. “The water in my river is better than the water in your river!” said one. “No, the water in my river is better than the water in your river!” said the other. The two rivers would...Story | By Christopher Buice | April 14, 2015 | From WorshipWebTagged as: Individualism, Nature, Purpose, Strength, UnityWorship element

“I believe that if, on every Sunday morning before going to church, we could be lifted to a mountain-peak and see a horizon line of six hundred miles enfolding the copious splendor of the light on such a varied expanse; or if we could look upon a square mile of flowers representing all the specie...Quote | By Thomas Starr King | March 31, 2015 | From WorshipWebTagged as: 7th Principle (Interconnected Web), Awe, Climate Justice, Earth, Earth Day, Nature, Reverence, Unitarianism, Universalism, WonderWorship element

The Earth has returned. She is living, breathing, Realizing her breath was leaving. She was needing us to remember her worth, to recognize her worth all over again. We used to be her friends. We used to help her heal us. Help her, heal us.

We float on a sea hidden beneath dry surfaces covered by stones. Isn’t this why we drink and dive so deeply go down to the sea in ships risk drowning, again and again? Isn’t this why Moses parted the waters to begin his journey? Why Jesus crossed the waters to comfort and challenge us? We were...Poetry | By Stephen M.

I have been wondering what the morning glories know. Is it envy that compels these vines to strangle other flowers arising in their path? Or perhaps self-preservation, to climb these walls, forsaking humbler beings, winding greedy stems around the trellis in their hungry pursuit of light. Still,...Poetry | By Terri Pahucki | March 23, 2015 | From WorshipWebTagged as: Connections, Earth-Centered, Joy, Nature, ReverenceWorship element
