​Join us the first Wednesday of the month for Spirituality on Tap, an informal gathering to discuss – not debate – questions related to spirituality, theology, religion, etc. 

We value both personal experience and intellectual reason in our conversations, informed by the wisdom found in sacred scripture and tradition. While SOT is not explicitly an interfaith group, and some discussions may be specific to a Christian context, we welcome all faith and religious/non-religious backgrounds and identities. We are not at all interested in proselytizing, just learning from each other.

Drinks and food optional, and on your own.

Making its Philadelphia debut, Théâtre Motus’ “Baobab is the next best thing to The Lion King, only smaller-scale and far better tailored (at 55 minutes) to young attention spans.” (Montreal Gazette)

Our 25/26 season, America Unfinished, aims to explore and illuminate the ongoing struggle to fulfill the promises made by our nation’s founders 250 years ago. How do the foundational ideals of life, liberty and pursuit of happiness resonate in the America of today, and what do they reveal about our evolving democracy? Is being ‘unfinished’ a failure, or an opportunity? What is your role in completing or redirecting the American experiment? What will the next 250 years look like? Philosopher John Dewey believed that good conversations underpin our democracy, so we encourage you to join the discussion at The Listening Cabinet in our Feintuch Family Lobby. Before your next show, select a question from a drawer and contemplate on your own or strike up a conversation with your neighbor. The questions were submitted by Philadelphians like you and encourage us all to reflect on this moment in our country’s legacy.
