Humorist, author, and radio commentator David Sedaris blends hilarity and heartbreak in his writings and offers a model of humor and humility which can serve as an example for all of us. We would all do well do treat ourselves and others tenderly but not too seriously.
In this service, Rev. John Ballance will draw upon his experience as a chaplain at Allegheny County Jail to reflect on the meaning of resilience even in the midst of the most challenging situations.
