The Golden Rule
and 7 Questions for Applying it to Life

A two hour program offering a little history as well as some practical tips for Golden Rule living

We’ll talk about how the Golden Rule
     became part of every major religion in the world;
            its existence in native spiritualities;
                  and its presence in secular moral codes.

We’ll also introduce 7 simple questions that, applied to the choices we make, can help us live more deeply into this underlying principle of life.

The program is a mixture of presentation, individual reflection and small group exercises using real life questions to ask how we can respond in a way that's in harmony with the Golden Rule.

A workbook is included for journaling and to take with you for future reference.
