It was former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld who said, "Freedom is untidy." He's right - that's because freedom is free. It's like the Holy, wild and unpredictable. Freedom doesn't know the concept of cages or fences. Instead, freedom is like the Holy Spirit, blowing where it wills, without a thought to our fears and hesitations.
When we ask our Via Creativa question, "What now?" The only true answer to move us forward is the answer that invites us to freedom - the answer that invites us to step outside of our comfortable homes, our comfortable cages, and get involved in this world around us.
Join us as we use music from The Rascals, Cole Porter and Paul Simon to learn how to free yourself to live the life the Holy calls you to.

Third Sunday: Faith on Film: "Living the Questions" an introduction to progressive Christianity
It was Albert Einstein who once remarked: "We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them." As we begin the new year, and our new Via Creativa, we will explore new ways of thinking, new ways of seeing the world, and new ways of living into this question: "What now?"
It is that question, "What now?" that can lead us to think in new, and creative, ways. It is asking that question, "What now?" that can lead us to see the world in new ways, and find creative ways to solve the problems we created in our old ways of thinking. It is that question, "What now?" that can lead us not just to think outside the box, but to get rid of the box altogether.
The tradition for some people in the new year is to make resolutions, which is really just another way of asking the "What now?" question. We feel like the new year gives us a new slate - a fresh start - and we start to ask ourselves, "What now?" What new things do we want to try? What new ways of living do we want to try? What old ways of thinking do we need to shed?
What now?
