Blessed Hopelessness

“Blessed Hopelessness,” by Rev. Candace Chellew-Hodge is about feeling “hope less”.  But now is the time to stop wishing for the world to change and get out there and be the change.

Rev. Chellew-Hodge is the pastor of Jubilee! Circle. She earned her Masters of Theological studies at the Candler School of Theology at Emory University in Atlanta, Ga. She is also trained as a spiritual director through the Omega Point program of the Episcopal Diocese of Atlanta. Her first book, Bulletproof Faith: A Spiritual Survival Guide for Gay and Lesbian Christians, was published by Jossey-Bass in 2008.

On Faith, Hope, and Love

This Father’s Day service will blend the values of faith, hope, and love, as Chip Harriford shares stories of fatherhood, the importance of Juneteenth, and his connection to the Charleston Nine.

The Discipline Of Joy

“I am not as certain as I used to be that seeing is believing. I’m more inclined to think that believing is seeing-that we see what we look for. If so, then it may make sense to think of joy more as a discipline than a happenstance.” (Rev. Dr. Neal Jones)

Free to Be Me and You

June is Pride Month. It’s a month to recognize and accept this diverse community that is characterized by a shared culture, social movements, and a focus on individuality. An introductory discussion for the month begins with recognizing how people are different and why that’s okay. Each of us is born in a different time and place and has a different heredity and environment. The product of the choices made by those factors makes us who we are: Free to be you and me.
