There was a neat response to “peace” which is the greek word “eirene”, which means “oneness”.

We drew a lot of parallels between external wars and internal wars.

It’s seems as though many of us have a lot of political factions inside our own skin, and we’re trying to support all of them.

In world where most everybody seems to be fragmented and “at war” inside, it was helpful for us to pray for seek after “oneness”.

You should try to find some other CofC’s in Nashville and read their bulletins in the coming weeks. You’ll probably see a story about you and your confirmation of the Otter Creek heresy. </p> <p> If only I were joking… </p> They do indeed still exist, but I’m sure they’ve written off Otter Creek long ago.
