Fostering Interfaith Relationships on the Eastside (FIRE) invites you to the seventh in a series of Dinner Dialogues aimed at fostering interfaith relationships, from 5-8 p.m. on May 15 hosted by Northlake Unitarian Universalist Church, 308 4th Avenue South, in Kirkland.

This Dialogue will be on the topic “Making Meaning in a Culture of Entertainment: Are faith, religion, and spiritual growth counter-cultural?”

The group will explore areas such as the role of silence, music, and video in worship; how faith communities retain adherents, especially young people, in a world where so many distractions compete for their attention; how media-driven culture affects modes of worship and whether the traditional must give way or adapt to the modern; what the experience of faith communities has been in incorporating media and technology; and more.

A panel from a variety of world religions will present the perspectives of their faith communities, followed by stimulating interfaith discussions among all participants.

This is a potluck dinner. Items must be labeled showing the ingredients to help people with food allergies and preferences make choices.

Everyone is invited to come and enjoy a fun evening of interfaith dialogue.
