 | From the pen of the Rev. Dr. Thandeka comes a new imaginative, autobiographical blog series that tells an emotional and fascinating story of a life-long, perilous quest to recover what was once lost. The series also includes extended appendices that outline Thandeka’s thoughts on the modern anti-racism movement, touch upon the recent UUA GA controversy, provide theoretical background and practical principles related to Contemporary Affect Theology, and lay the foundations of a new approach to the work we are called to do.

This new blog series from the Rev. Dr. Thandeka is moving, revelatory, and groundbreaking. It sheds light on the principles of identity formation and sets the roadmap for the next evolutionary stage in racial-justice and social-justice work. At the center of it is a deeply personal narrative, full of vulnerability and grace. Truly a fascinating and engaging read!
Writes Rev. Dr. Thandeka: "Many Unitarian Universalist ministers and congregants have asked me to not only comment on the current racial crisis, but also to offer practical steps forward. Cerberus, my blog series, is the framework for my response to these requests because Cerberus is found on all sides of the present UU racial conflicts."

 | The sermon was delivered on Sunday, October 14, 2018, at All Souls Unitarian Church in Tulsa, Oklahoma, by Rev. Dr. Marlin Lavanhar, Senior Minister. DESCRIPTION: At the heart of American democracy is... (wait for it...) “heart!” One of America’s foremost 21st century liberal theologians, Dr. Rev. Thandeka, teaches that when liberal religion displaces emotion from the moral equation, a contradiction of moral reasoning diminishes the impact of the liberal voice in American public life. Mainstream churches and liberal politicians will continue to lose ground unless this contradiction is reconciled. The most well-reasoned, documented and articulated facts, figures and solutions will continue to fail to move people to change. Thandeka says, “Liberal moral reasoning does not parse the American heart.” At All Souls, reconciliation is at the heart of our work. Join me to explore solutions we strive to achieve in our liberal religious faith. YouTube link: https://youtu.be/zr00_voJtF8 [link] [comments] |
