The Unitarian Church of Quincy, Illinois episodes

  • Conversation with Mark Twain
    Henry Sweets has been the curator of the
    Mark Twain Museum in Hannibal, Missouri for nearly 30
    years. Tracing Samuel Clemens' personal history from
    his boyhood in rural Missouri, through his European
    adventures, his aquaintance with Henry Ward Beecher and his
    close friendship with Rev. Joseph Twichell; Mr. Sweets
    illustrates the biting disdain that Mark Twain held for
    every sort of hypocrisy, including his
    own.

  • The Worship Question and the Ties that Bind
    It can be truly difficult to explain what
    it is that we, as Unitarians, do. And when we are
    contrasted with the American versions of Christianity, it
    is impossibly difficult for us to explain what it is that
    we believe. But here is Rob, taking one more stab at
    it.
    30 min
  • Values-driven Life Success
    Dr. Thomas Klincar, the president of John
