Solvitur Ambulando (It Is Solved by Walking) - March 21, 2021
“Solvitur Ambulando,” the title of my sermon this morning, is a Latin phrase meaning “It is
solved by walking.” People attribute it to Saint Augustine in the 4th century, but no one really knows who said it first or how long ago. Walking is a way to think, to reflect, to notice, and to connect. Do you walk when you are trying to think through a situation? When you are seething over an argument? When you are sad and need to lift your spirits? When you are happy and need to move to express your joy? We walk to see what is happening in nature and in our community, as well as to understand what is happening within ourselves. Download the pdf of the sermon here.
