Rev. “Twinkle” Marie Manning’s Presentation:
“Arguing for the Sake of Heaven”
What do our disagreements look like? What, if any, are our ulterior motives when we engage in conversations with those we disagree with? Are they battles for the sake of winning? Or are they rooted in the search for truth and meaning? This service explores what it means to Argue for the Sake of Heaven as a practical and spiritual practice for Building Bridges.

This poet will be ever-present in my life. Andrea Gibson’s work has been seeded through my own for years, and will be for years to come. Andrea transitioned just over a week ago. I, along with a world of lovers-of-her-spirit, wept. Still weep. Her writing delivered raw truth painted in buttercups upon fields of beauty. Ushered forth by a voice that, with technology and memory, will linger for as long as humans have access to them. Here is one of Andrea’s departing gifts:
