About this Event
“We have inherited a large house, a great ‘world house’ in which we have to live together – black and white, Easterner and Westerner, Gentile and Jew, Catholic and Protestant, Moslem and Hindu – a family unduly separated in ideas, culture, and interest, who because we can never again live apart, must somehow learn to live with each other in peace.”
Martin Luther King
We are all thinking about it, we are all experiencing it, and we all have questions. The COVID-19 Pandemic has created a Tsunami of Change. Its effects on the world’s personal, social, and political norms have been and will be one of the most impactful events in recent human history. Where do we go from here? What is the future we want?
WHAT WE WILL EXPLORE..
The Forum will explore how the faith community might help reset and cocreate spiritual, ethical and moral tenets to help leaders respond of complex challenges and chaos of current systems within the constructs of remaining true to their respective faiths.
The Forum will serve as an opportunity to bring together members of the faith community to explore how we might engage with government to address ongoing and emerging challenges that demand a reframing of spiritual, ethical and moral leadership.
What new ways of thinking and being may assist us move through and cultivate climate in the noosphere -- that is the sphere of human consciousness and mental activity especially in regard to its influence on the biosphere and in relation to evolution. What might be a way forward? What is a SMART Way?
