Liberal values are the only values that have ever moved humanity forward, toward its fuller potential. Yet this does not mean its promise has only been stalled because of resistance from those of a more conservative spirit who are fearful of any and all change. Throughout history, those professing liberalism and its values have often proven to be the worst offenders of human dignity and welfare. In this sermon, we’ll consider some of the warning signs of a liberalism that’s gone wrong.

7/20/2024 – Reflections on the Loss of the 7 Principles & 6 Sources

Jul 31, 2024 | News

For July, the worship committee presents a service focused around a group discussion of the rift in the UUA, and particularly the article 2 vote; the grief associated with these events, and our path forward. The reading is to be the 6 sources and 7 principles. For the homily we ask 3 speakers (Joyce Kinnear, Rev. Twinkle Manning, Rev. Todd Eklof)) to give short talks that inspire reflection and comments. We hope to help people acknowledge the reality of what has happened and provide a positive vision for the future.
