I’ve always maintained that the various Personality Inventories (MBTI and Enneagram in particular) can be helpful for self-reflection but can also be limiting when interpreted as a static reality. Let us lean into Socrates’ age-old injunction: “To know thyself is the beginning of wisdom.” https://zoom.us/j/97989696520?pwd=ZG9NclFYQm9VV0NTb2VhNVM0R00xQT09 Meeting ID: 979 8969 6520 Passcode: 183183Phone: +1 929 205 6099 Order … Continue reading Know Thyself

The holidays of Easter, Passover, and Vernal Equinox are like centers of gravity on the spring calendar. They each mean something a little different while carrying a few key similarities. Consider what they mean and how we might approach them together. https://zoom.us/j/97989696520?pwd=ZG9NclFYQm9VV0NTb2VhNVM0R00xQT09 Meeting ID: 979 8969 6520 Passcode: 183183Phone: +1 929 205 6099 Order of Service: uubinghamton.org/order-of-service/ … Continue reading The Promise and the Sacrifice

Thoreau was focused on what he called economy. https://zoom.us/j/97989696520?pwd=ZG9NclFYQm9VV0NTb2VhNVM0R00xQT09 Meeting ID: 979 8969 6520 Passcode: 183183Phone: +1 929 205 6099 Order of Service: uubinghamton.org/order-of-service/ UUCB Zoom Social Hour We also host a Zoom Social Hour at … Continue reading The Economy of Soul
