Understanding: The Assignment by Dr. Je’ Exodus Hooper

Friends Meeting House 227 Edgewood Rd, Asheville, NC

The history of the Ethical Culture Movement had been a long journey of uncertainty and unprecedented ideas. Dr. Felix Adler, although well educated and informed, made up this philosophical and religious formation each and everyday. In this platform, we will seek to appreciate and explore uncertainty, seek meaning, be generators of ideas and agents of change. You are the assignment: you matter. You shape your role, your assignment.
