Finding Stability in Uncertain Times - Join Us This Sunday!
What does it mean to be spiritual but disconnected from traditional communities? This Sunday, November 16th, we're hosting something special at Skyline Church.
Rev. Dr. Isa Gucciardi – whose integrative work speaks to my own spiritual journey – will share "The Four Immeasurables": Buddhist wisdom that deepens Christian practice. Loving-kindness, compassion, empathetic joy, and equanimity aren't abstract concepts but practical pathways to inner stability in uncertain times.
Isa is the founding director of the Foundation of the Sacred Stream and creator of Depth Hypnosis™. With 30+ years studying across Buddhist, Christian, Jewish, and Sufism traditions, she teaches nationally through the UCC's Convergence platform and has co-taught with Matthew Fox and Robert Thurman.
10:00 AM - Worship Service (in person & Zoom)
11:15 AM - The conversation that matters most:

Your presence shapes what emerges. Come as you are.
