Sunday morning, Rev. Nancy TannerThies joined us with more reflections on our monthly theme of Healing. As we find ourselves in the middle of unsettled times, even hurt and dis-ease, many of us long for healing. Rev. Nancy suggested that the healing we wish for can take three different forms, each with its own promise and risk. We want Cures to repair our problems, but in trying to change reality back to some idyllic state, we can miss the process of creating the new reality that could be. We need some level of Comfort to function and move forward, but we can also seek comfort as an escape and fail to address things that are important but uncomfortable. And finally, through Compromise, we can come together in our universal human woundedness and build a new way forward together. A bad compromise can lead to bad feelings and mistrust on all sides, but if we see it as a place not to sacrifice our values but to prioritize our values, if we are willing to listen to the inherent humanity even of those we disagree with, we can begin to build a way forward, even in the midst of long-term challenges.
