In this talk we will explore:
· Why we are not here to “save” the world, but to serve an emerging paradigm of love, connectedness, compassion, and selfless service.
· That there is no separation between our spiritual, social, and political endeavors which are all governed by the immutable principle that we are one family co-creating the destiny of our planet.
· How every member within a spiritual community is empowered to be a transforming agent.
Tickets for the event are available at the Unity North Atlanta Church office or online at www.unitynorth.org.
