ANTI-RACISM TEXT/BIBLE STUDY WITH THE STABLE
Did you know that The Stable meets online every Tuesday for an Anti-Racism Text (Bible) Study? Co-hosted by Rev. Dr. Jia Starr Brown and Rev. Dr. Aimée Appell, this weekly ecumenical study is not only for our white-bodied siblings… we have all been bamboozled!!
We ALL need support in unlearning colonial interpretations of Scripture.
Remember: ‘Christ and capitalism should not intersect.’ Please give if/what you can. God will fill the gap!
Tuesdays beginning October 7, 2026 / 12:00-1:00 (ish)

REFUGIA FAITH: A CONVERSATION WITH DR. DEBRA RIENSTRA
Where does hope take root in uncertain times? Join Rev. Cameron Trimble and theologian, writer, and professor Dr. Debra Rienstra for a special online conversation about Refugia Faith and the ways we can nurture life amid disruption.
In ecology, refugia are small places where life survives through disturbance, allowing it to regenerate and spread. Debra invites us to consider what this might mean spiritually in an age of climate instability, political turmoil, institutional decline, and profound uncertainty.
Together, we’ll explore how our congregations, communities, relationships, and everyday lives might become places where courage, compassion, beauty, and wisdom can grow. What can we protect and cultivate now that might help life flourish in the years ahead?
Come with your questions, your concerns, and your longing for a hopeful way forward.

A “blue whirl” is a newly-discovered phenomenon in which four separate types of flame combine into a blue fire-tornado that burns without soot: a tool researchers hope will lead to more environmentally friendly oil-spill clean-ups and perhaps cleaner energy.
We curate Blue Whirl Webinars from opportunities around the region and across the country to support leaders and congregations – in all areas of ministry – bringing together presenters, leaders, colleagues, and the Holy Spirit: four flames combining to “clean-up” tired ministries and energize leaders and communities for new life – hopefully without leaving any environmental hazards in our wake!
Get inspired, learn something new, explore others’ innovations, grow and develop as an individual and/or as a congregation.
