We can all quote at least one, maybe two, instances of the “Golden Rule”, however, what is the intent of this “rule” and can somebody please explain why All, as in EVERY, spiritual tradition on Earth has a version of it? Wow! Marc Mullinax returns on July 9th to speak about the Golden Rule as you’ve rarely heard it before.
SPEAKER
Dr. Marc Mullinax
Marc Mullinax has been a friend and frequent visitor to this pulpit since 2002. Through these glad years he has been extended every courtesy and hospitality, which has emboldened Marc to present creative – and sometimes edgy – talks.
Marc is Professor Emeritus of Religion at Mars Hill University, and is the creator of the podcast, “Power for the Peaceful: A Course in Taoism.” He is also a house host at the Biltmore House in Asheville, near to where he lives.
MUSICIAN
Jenna Jaffe
Jenna has been performing music, dancing and making art since she was a child. She has a vocal performance degree from the UC Santa Barbara and extensive graduate vocal work at the USC. Jenna is multifaceted. She is a multi-instrumentalist who has taught for thirty years. She is mixed media visual artist that focuses on equality for all life ( you can see her work at The Refinery, in Asheville). Jenna teaches ESL at AB Tech, is on the Board at AAPF, and both National & WNC Music Teachers Association.
In 2022 she received a Tzedek Social Justice Impact Award for her musical and artistic work engaged in community activism and system change.
In her “spare” time she gardens, studies languages, mindfulness, and energy healing. She also performs regularly in Asheville NC.
We gather for worship and fellowship each Sunday with a service at 10:30 followed by coffee hour. Dress is casual. Parking is plentiful. And our building is accessible.
Family Ministry / Sunday School: All Ages meet in Sanctuary at 10:30 AM Children go to classrooms at 10:45 after the “Story for All Ages.” On the lower level, we have a nursery for infants and toddlers, and we have classes where children and youth learn about and explore faith, religion, justice, and community.
We welcome you: your whole self, with all your truths and your doubts, your worries and your hopes. Join us on this extraordinary adventure of faith!
