As students of the Living School we are learning a set of theological perspectives and are encouraged to engage with them through certain practices.  The option of meeting together in a retreat creates a context in which:

• we can refresh and reframe those perspectives in conversation with each other, and

• can rehearse certain practices and clarify how we can act out these new ways of being in our daily lives.

I hope to add to this another couple of layers:

• to clarify our understanding of and deepen our commitment to certain practices that we each are taking on for ourselves, and

• to envision and enflesh new ways of being that support personal and collective transformation not only for those of us in the community but also for those who have not yet “heard the Word.”

Or to put this a bit differently: from a Unitive perspective, given our new understandings of Incarnation and Christ, what do worship and evangelism look like?
