Sermon Topic: Shame
Shame is not just an emotion—it is often a learned response, embedded in us through early conditioning that distances us from our truest selves. At its root, shame is the voice of inauthenticity, a lie we carry that hinders our growth, empathy, and creative expression.
This week’s reflection explores:
How shame influences our self-perception and relationships
The ways we cast shame—publicly, privately, or silently within
The link between gossip, judgment, and the absence of grace
How authenticity, silence, and inner stillness reveal truth
How to recognize shame as the sum of internalized lies and discard it through spiritual self-remembering
Shame is the opposite of grace. It is the burden that masks our true nature. When we choose grace instead—when we listen within, release judgment, and allow ourselves and others to simply be—we make space for healing. We align with our Creator. And we begin to walk in truth.
Community Guidelines:
Silent Arrival Requested
We ask that all guests arrive in silence. This means refraining from speaking upon entry. Ushers will be present to help guide you mindfully into the space.
Children Welcome
Families are encouraged to attend. However, parents must ensure children remain respectful of the sacred space and do not disrupt the experience for others.
Amenities
Animals on Site: Dogs, cats, and many goats
(No outside pets allowed. Thank you for understanding.)
Food: Bring a dish to share, or simply enjoy what’s offered. Donations welcome but not required.
Music: High-vibration, spiritually uplifting dance music during our Goatstatic Dance hour
Cost
This is a free community offering. Donation jars will be available, and all contributions support Goat Walkabouts, our nonprofit goat rescue organization.
What to Wear
This is not the kind of church that asks for ties and dresses. We’re focused on the heart—not the wardrobe. Come as you are. Whether casual, ceremonial, or creative (yes, even in a Lucha Libre costume), you are welcome here.
