Becoming Beloved: a sermon

February 12, 2023 By Chris Corrigan Featured, Practice 6 Comments

Reading: Psalm 119:1-8 Nan Merrell Version from Praying the Psalms. Blessed are those whose ways are blameless Who live with spiritual integrity Blessed are those who honour the Inner Being Who follow you with their whole heart Who enfold the world with love and walk on the peaceful path You have shown the way of Truth the way that leads to freedom O that I might ever reflect the Light Then I shall know inner peace as I surrender myself into your Hands I will praise You with a grateful heart as I lean on your great kindness As I …

On leaders stepping back

January 26, 2023 By Chris Corrigan Community, Leadership, Practice, Uncategorized 2 Comments

Richard Rohr has been an important and influential presence in my own spiritual journey over these past 10 or 15 years and although I have never met the man, I have visited the Center for Action and Contemplation in Albuquerque, and every day I reflect on his teachings and practice through daily blog posts from the Center and through the vast library of Rohr’s works. After several years of transition, Richard Rohr now seems to be fully released from his duties at the Center as he nears the end of his life, and this little video series is a lovely …

What we are called to: a sermon

January 22, 2023 By Chris Corrigan Community, Featured, Practice 4 Comments

Nuu-Chah-Nulth and Kwakw’kwa’kwa’kw Elders and youth teaching together in the Kwagiulth big house at Fort Rupert in 2005. Once a month, in our little United Church here on Nexwlelexwm (Bowen Island) I fill in for our not-quite-full-time minister by leading the service and offering a sermon. I’ve never published those sermons here, but why not? Here is today’s. Reading: Matthew 4:12-25 We are well into the season of Epiphany and so this is the time of year that we contemplate Jesus’ ministry in the world and his early life. We get to witness a Jesus who is called from his …

A new book from Peter Levine

January 6, 2023 By Chris Corrigan Being, Democracy, Practice 2 Comments

For years Peter Levine, a moral/political philosopher who teaches at Tufts University, has been a must-read for me for his musings on civic engagement, democracy, policy, history and philosophy. Today he celebrates 20 years of blogging with the release of “Cuttings: a book about happiness” that is a collection of his collected blog posts on “Happiness” which is so much more than that title implies. The book is a set of reflections on philosophical texts, religious scriptures, and poetry, Buried in the text is a little observation that I suspect says something about who he is: So we have a …

End of year reflections

December 24, 2022 By Chris Corrigan Art of Hosting, Being, Bowen, Collaboration, Community, Complexity, Design, Facilitation, Featured, Football, Leadership, Learning, Music, Practice, Stories, Travel 10 Comments

Smelhmelhélch (Passage Island) at the mouth of Átl’ka7tsem (Howe Sound) before the snows came earlier this week. Some notes on 2023 while I have a moment to review them. The year began with the death of my father and is ending with worries about the serious and lingering health issues of other senior family members and so in a lot of ways this year has been split between personal grief during the first part of the year, and the waiting, supporting and attending in the second part of the year. Several times during the year, I haven’t found myself at …
