Shoring our lives with scripture, reason, religious tradition, and wisdom

Shoring our lives with scripture, reason, religious tradition, and wisdom

February 19, 2017
Rev. Debra Low-Skinner

In my sermon I talked about how Frank Lloyd Wright designed the Imperial Hotel in Tokyo, which withstood a great earthquake in 1923. I explained how the foundation of our lives need to be as agile and strong, as we shore ourselves up with scripture, reason, religious tradition, wisdom gained from personal experience, and prayer.

Afterwards, Itoko Akuhara said that her late husband used to work at the front desk of the Imperial Hotel. Small world.

Pardon the coughing in this recording (thankfully done by Ryoko Kobayashi). I am battling a bad cold.
