Spirituality and Sexuality Discussion Group

by Rich McCarty

Every third Tuesday of the month, beginning February 16, 2010, the Rev. Dr. Rich McCarty will faciliate a discussion group on spirituality and sexuality at Community United Church (1011 West 38th Street) in Erie, PA. Community United Church is an open and affirming Christian congregation. The discussion group will ground conversation in relevant issues such as what Christian scripture and ethics have to say about human sexuality, but will also provide individuals opportunites to share questions, stories, and experiences with respect to what it means to identify as a person who is both spiritual and sexual. This group will also explore comparative religious views on sexuality and think about how different religious perspectives can help or hurt a person to cultivate a strong and sure sexual identity. Meetings will be confidential. Come join the discussion! For more info, contact Rich at richmccarty@msn.com or at (319) 270-5140.
