Moss is a Humanist Chaplain and Webby Award-winning storyteller unwavering in his pursuit to relate stories that connect us to our humanity. A natural explorer\, he uses playful inquisition to examine the complexity of the human condition and the intrinsic meaning of life. Moss maintains an interdisciplinary practice of storytelling\, street philosophy\, and practical altruism. In 2015\, Moss created The Adventures of Memento Mori podcast. The consequence of this deep meditation on impermanence was life changing. Uncertain of what happens after we die\, Moss has dedicated his life to the positive changes that can happen while we’re still alive. \nAbout Terry Perlin\nTerry M.

Terry received his B.A. in History\, magna cum laude\, from Rutgers University and his Ph.D. in History of Ideas from Brandeis University. For ten years he was Ethics Consultant for the American Association of Blood Banks. Terry is the author of Clinical Medical Ethics: Cases In Practice and trains hospital ethics committees in case consultation. \nMonthly Collection\nProject Renewal \nAbout Sunday Platform\nSunday Platform is our most important and long-standing community event.
