“How We Play the Game” with Rev. Roberta Finkelstein
“How We Play the Game” with Rev. Roberta Finkelstein
It seems like our lives are overly filled with partisan win/lose propositions. Now that we Unitarian Universalists have agreed to put love at the center of our affirmation of faith, how can we move from a win/lose mentality to an embrace of the context and the process? This service is inspired by the well known quote by Grantland Rice, slightly modified to be more inclusive. “When the one great scorer comes to mark against our names, they’ll write not that we won or lost but how we played the game.”
