Lake Anne Brew House

Forgiveness is far more complicated than a simple spiritual decision. Drawing on theology, psychology, and physical well-being, this Taproom Theology conversation explores the grace we receive and the forgiveness we extend, while making room for the anger, grief, regret, and unresolved hurt that shape our lives and relationships.
Together, we’ll wrestle with the tensions between grace and accountability, forgiveness and boundaries, and healing and reconciliation. We’ll consider why forgiveness doesn’t mean excusing harm, forgetting what happened, or returning to unsafe relationships, and how God’s love meets us not just when we forgive, but throughout the messy, imperfect process of getting there.Join Taproom Theology for an insightful evening featuring Sage Bolte, PhD, a renowned educator and mental health therapist. Explore the complex themes of grace and forgiveness within a relaxed atmosphere where beliefs are brewed and hope is on tap.

Northern Virginia Fairfax Families for Safe Streets (NoVA FSS) cordially invites you to attend and support our upcoming World Day of Remembrance (WDoR) for Road Traffic Victims.<a href="https://novasafestreets.org/world-day-of-remembrance-for-road-traffic-victims-2026/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">novasafestreets.org/world-day-of-remembrance-for-road-traffic-victims-2026/</a>World Day of Remembrance is an annual event where we honor those whose lives were prematurely ended after being struck by a person driving. This year is particularly painful and sad as we think about the recent death of a 13-year-old Frost middle school student who was struck and killed by a person driving a truck on Pickett Road. We will also honor the more than 25 other people (as of today’s date) who have been killed on Northern Virginia streets while, walking, biking, or rolling since last year’s day of remembrance.The event will conclude with calls to action for our elected officials and policy-makers. Crashes are not accidents - they can be prevented.
