TITLE OF TALK: "The Tinman, Scarecrow, Lion, and Dorothy: Finding Community on the Yellow Brick Road"
DESCRIPTION: Teresa is a dynamic, engaging speaker. She will be discussing community. She ways: Community. This word has been tossed around by freethinkers for years, but in the last year it has come to the forefront of our conversations. What is community? Should we seek out community? Is religion the only place where community is found? Or necessary? This talk, The Tinman, Scarecrow, Lion and Dorothy: Finding Community on the Yellow Brick Road, will look at each of the above questions and share the four basic stages of community building, growing and maintaining.
