Lessons of Love - Sermons-First Unitarian Universalist Society of San Francisco

15 February 2021 at 19:21
"Lessons of Love" (February 14, 2021) Worship Service

Years ago I read an article in some low-brow magazine in which a woman was reflecting on what she had taken away from all the past relationships that were long gone. Broken hearts (or breaking hearts) was only part of the story. Learning French, because she fell in love with a Frenchman, was one. There was a laundry list of how love had changed her from the superficial to the enduring. Lessons in Love.

The Wonder of Being Alive - Sermons-First Unitarian Universalist Society of San Francisco

1 February 2021 at 22:51
"The Wonder of Being Alive" (January 31, 2021) Worship Service

Being alive is more than just existing, more than not being dead. Adjectives abound when we talk about being alive. We can be animated. Lively. Alert. Awake. Being alive, to me, is about being in relationship. For some of us, we feel most alive when we are with other people. Others find their aliveness in nature. Many find it in art, particularly the making of art.  As we begin the slow return to spring, let’s spend some time imagining what it means to be alive in this world.

"The Nature of Religious Experience and the Power of Knowing" (January 24, 2021) Worship Service

William James in his classic text, "The Varieties of Religious Experience" outlines the qualities common to so-called religious experiences. One of them is knowing.

In praise of the dark - First Unitarian Universalist Church of Austin

24 January 2021 at 21:26
Rev. Meg Barnhouse's sermon delivered on January 24, 2021. Some people use the metaphor of darkness to mean wrongness or evil, but darkness is as sacred as light. It is in the darkness that roots grow, and it is in a time of uncertainty that people can reflect and transform the way they are going to go forward. As we say goodbye to the darkness of winter, let us pause to appreciate it a bit.

Spiritual Imagination - First Unitarian Universalist Church of Austin

17 January 2021 at 20:48
Assistant Minister Rev. Chris Jimmerson's sermon delivered on January 17, 2021. Our imagination can lead to both wonderful spiritual paths and can take us down paths that can wound our spirits. On the one hand, our imagination helps us dream of a better life for ourselves and a better, more just world for all. Yet, we can also imagine things that are not true and get drawn into harmful cultural myths. Our imagination can also help sense the sacred all around us in our everyday lives.

β€œLet the End be the Beginning: A Meditative Service for the New Year" (December 27, 2020) Worship Service

This service will be a time structured for meditative reflection on the year past and the year to come. Be prepared to sit with your own thoughts, take notes.

Denazification and Cult Deprogramming - Live Oak Unitarian Universalist Church

27 December 2020 at 04:56

After World War II, the Allies instituted a program of removing Nazi ideology from Germany and Austria. Combined with modern research about the most effective ways of saving a loved one from a cult, we can begin the work of rebuilding our society with the values of Beloved Community.

The Story We Will Tell - Live Oak Unitarian Universalist Church

27 December 2020 at 04:54

As Adrienne Maree Brown says, “all organizing is science fiction”. As we organize for social justice individually and as a congregation, we have to be clear about the story we want to tell about our collective future. If we focus only on what we are against, we can be pulled in many directions AND never get to be innovative about how to reach the beloved community. Join guest preacher, Heather Vickery, in imagining a new story together.

About Heather:

Heather Vickery is the Coordinator for Congregational Activism for the UU Service Committee and the UU College of Social Justice – she works with congregations to do their justice work more effectively and faithfully while connecting with other folks in the UU Universe like state action networks and UUA regional staff. She is the Treasurer of the newly incorporated Beyond Bond and Legal Defense Fund and an active member of the Boston Immigration Justice Accompaniment Network also known as just BEYOND. This is also Heather’s last of four years serving as the President of the Board of the First Parish in Malden.
