2nd Quarter 2025 Webinars
"Grace-Filled and Firm Boundaried"
Facilitator: Rev. Cynthia Vermillion-Foster
(Webinar: Ethics & Boundaries Credit)
Thursday, May 8 | 1:00 to 3:00 pm CT
Description: Unarmed truth and unconditional love - two powerful ideas. When we marry these ideas, we create the foundation for something extraordinary to happen. And holding these two concepts simultaneously can be challenging. When we lean more towards truth, our words can become harsh, critical, and harmful. And when we lean more towards love, we may engage in what Pema Chodren calls "idiot compassion" - stifling growth and allowing bad behavior to continue.
Registration closes Tuesday, May 6
3rd Quarter 2025 Webinars
"Turn Your Life (and Your Ministry) Outward"
Facilitator: Rev. Aliza Bloom
(Webinar: 1.5 General Credit)
Thursday, July 10 | 1:00 to 2:30 pm CT
Description: The success of a ministry can never surpass the collective consciousness of the leadership. The foundation of this course is that we create separation by seeing people as objects that are obstacles or opportunities to getting what we want, or irrelevant to us. This course is an antidote to all separation and a way to embody our spiritual principles in how we relate to one another in life and in our community.
Registration closes Tuesday, July 8
"The Zen Organizer"
Facilitator: Regina Leeds
(Webinar: 1.5 General Credit)
Thursday, August 14 | 1:30 to 3:00 pm CT
Description: Declare peace over chaos in your personal and professional space. Curating our life doesn’t need to be a challenge. Increase productivity by reducing clutter and inviting creativity.
Stuff is noisy. Once we quiet the environment we are in a better position to hear the still, small voice of God whispering our Life Purpose. We are then empowered and supported to fulfill it.
