Bound Together
A post-election worship service. Religion has its root in the Latin verb religare, “to bind together.” We find ourselves bound together in families, in work, in neighborhoods, in societies. Sometimes there are so many ties binding us that the interdependent web can feel more like a trap than a blessing. Perhaps honoring our connectedness while still pursuing the joy of freedom could be a remedy for living in a society as anxious as ours.

Even the Coconut Tree
None of us fell out of a coconut tree—we are all connected to the vast network of all that is. In this web, even the coconut tree and whatever falls out of it are part of a larger story and context.

We should really refer to the web of life as “the web of life and death.” As we honor our beloved dead with a ritual of memory, we tell a story that reminds us of the necessity of death for the flourishing of life.
