Rev. Pat Jobe will be back with us to talk about paternalism, power structures, and a more UU future for shared power. How do we use our power? How do we seek equality, balance, friendship, the deepest connections we can form?

We will have a discussion group following the service. If you would like to join via ZOOM and are not currently on our discussion group Email list - contact uucl.office@gmail.com.

​A simple but profound question asked in The Invitation, by Oriah Mountain Dreamer, “I want to know if you can see Beauty even when it is not pretty and if you can source your own life from its presence.”  This month’s theme is Beauty and Rev. Dr. Nannette Pierson will break open the Word and share the Beauty she sees in those whose lives are broken and filled with hopelessness and despair.  Yet, still there is a hidden beauty, a beauty that can only be seen if you stay close enough, long enough and silent enough, to hear the soft cries of pain and loneliness, through the shouts of anger and rage, protecting what was once so innocent and beautiful before it was broken. This beauty can be seen if one is truly present and has eyes to see a beauty even when it’s not so pretty…

Some ancient words still ring true  Does these five words make sense anymore?

It may surprise you to know that this humanist minister prays, but my prayers would probably not pass the test of traditionally religious people. I’d like to share with you my conception of what prayer is and what it accomplishes.

A dialog sermon with Charlie Tyler and Dick Hood reflecting of the "art" of ministry.  Has it changed? Is it relevant?  Is it different for UU's?

Rev. Travis Smith will join Rev. Pat Jobe for a dialogue sermon on the historical roots of the resurrection myths (and we know there are plenty of them) and particularly what such news might have meant to the tired, the poor, the huddled masses of the time of Jesus. Whether he physically rose from the dead or not, the myth of a rise from death electrified his followers and leaves us with energy we might tap for the work before us today.
