In this talk, Zachary Helton will share the story behind his new novel, Metta Valley Gospel—what it is, where it came from, and why it feels urgently needed in this cultural moment. What happens when we retell the stories that formed us? What new possibilities emerge when compassion becomes the center of the narrative? Join us for a reflection on creativity as spiritual practice, storytelling as cultural healing, and the enduring human need for meaning in uncertain times. Zachary Helton is a spiritual care counselor and author. His work centers on creating imaginative spaces for reflection and connection, especially in times of transition.
