In the final sermon in our Faith & Film series, Rev. Dr. Daniel Kanter explores what it means to live courageously in a world that often demands our silence and compliance. Drawing inspiration from the film The Way Way Back, the abolitionist legacy of Thaddeus Stevens, and the struggles we face in today’s political and personal climate, this message calls us to resist fear, reject prescribed paths, and claim the freedom to live as our truest selves. If you’re facing hard truths, longing for justice, or searching for the courage to be fully yourself, this message offers space and strength for the journey. 💚 Consider making a one-time contribution to First Church today.
