Just two days after the inauguration, we’ll explore how our personal and national narrative might unfold in the coming months. How will we shape that story as we step forward into this challenging moment in our history?  Guest Speaker Norman Allen will be preaching with Worship Associate Dick Poland.

An award-winning playwright, Norman Allen has seen his work produced by the Shakespeare Theatre Company, the Kennedy Center, and other venues in the Washington, DC area, as well as at theatres in Prague, Tokyo, Cape Town, and Budapest. His essays can be found on spirit-oriented websites such as OnBeing, OnFaith, and Tikkun, and in leading print publications, such as the Washington Post and Smithsonian and Yes! magazines.
