This podcast is excerpted from Unity Temple Unitarian Universalist Congregation's live stream of a worship service on May 17, 2020. For Minister of Faith Development Rev. Emily Gage, we're kind of in that "I don't think this is ever going to end" phase of sheltering in place... Every day feels the same and it still seems strange and new at the same time. For me, finding old favorite things that have helped me before are helping me again. Like re-reading Frog and Toad.
