The third source is "Wisdom from the world’s religions which inspires us in our ethical and spiritual life," but then numbers four and six seem to just be specific examples of wisdom from the world's religions.
Am I missing something?
30F, going solo to my first UU service to see what it’s like. What would be appropriate to wear?
I’m Jewish, and I know there’s a certain “dress code” for a synagogue so I figure I should ask about UU fellowships.
EDIT: Nevermind! Apparently, I can’t just go to a service without being a member. I have to complete an introductory learning series first. So I’ll be starting that on Sunday instead.
I guess I’m speaking mostly about the music, but as much as I liked what I heard being said at the local UU conversations I’ve visited, one thing that turned me off is that the presentation felt even MORE like church than evangelical churches I’ve been too. I’m not a fan of singing in church in general, but songs in a traditional-hymn style, with the only instrumentation being a line piano being played with no syncopation feels like torture to me. I supposed I could show up late to skip the music, but that feels wrong somehow.
Hi :) recently got to have a weekend away with a lovely bunch of UU people and before dinner, they'd light a chalice and share things they were grateful for. Kind of like prayer, but just to each other and the world. it just left the sweetest feeling for me. I'd like to incorporate this into my life, but I'm wondering about some other things I can do to feel more connected to my faith. Any suggestions?
