Soul Matters Playlists
February Paying Attention – Spotify & YouTube
Sunday, March 1 – The Power of Paying Attention to Our Impact on Others
Age Based Groups (Grades PreK-3 & 4-9) – inside
All month long, we are exploring how powerful attention is. This week, we are focusing on The Power of Paying Attention to Our Impact on Others. To do that, we will let World Compliment Day guide us. As we all know, compliments have the power to brighten people’s day, which is a great reminder of how our attitudes, choices, and mood can shape the attitudes, choices, and moods of others. This will help us get at the importance of being intentional about how we are in the world, because for better or worse, our “stuff” spills over into the lives of others.
Sunday, March 8 – The Power of Paying Attention to Inequality
Age Based Groups (Grades PreK-3 & 4-9) – inside
All month long, we are exploring how powerful attention is. This week, we are focusing on the power of paying attention to inequality. To do that, we will let International Women’s Day guide us. As we all know, women have a history of calling us to pay attention to women’s rights and inequalities of all kinds. We will also get a chance to lift up Emily Stowe and Lucy Stone.
Sunday, March 15 – The Power of Paying Attention to the Present Moment

As we all know, next month is Earth Day, which invites us to look at many of the issues around the climate crisis, but World Water Day gives us the gift of focusing on this one aspect of nature and the earth. This will be an excellent chance for us to discover how our relationship with water is more complex and wonderful than we often realize.
