What are we reaching toward? And are we reaching toward the right thing?

As a people of faith, we are formed by the dreams and convictions of those who came before us. What threads have we inherited, and which shall we carry forward?

In a special sermon rebroadcast from Easter of 2019, Rev. John ponders what Jesus' final wishes were for his loved ones.

How do we actually commit to building our dream world community? This is hope-filled and imaginative work, but where do we start? I personally feel the “how” and the “where do we start” questions can be extremely daunting and overwhelming. I need a map, a blueprint, something to look at to tell me exactly what to do, but sometimes there isn’t one or it isn’t clear, and then what? I will share one method or map that has helped me in committing to this work of building a world community that is equitable for all.

On the fallacy of the "appeal to tradition" and the one phrase my conscience repeats over and over.

It is so easy to get overwhelmed by the magnitude of the work our faith calls us to. Where do we start? The answer is we begin one starfish at a time.

We begin March's exploration of what it means to be a people of commitment with the big question: What is our Unitarian Universalist faith asking us, exactly, to commit to?

Part 2 of "Beloved Community"

How do we navigate our values in a time of xenophobia and extreme tribalism? What does radical hospitality look like? How deep does our generosity extend to those not of our tribe? There are no easy answers. As one of my teachers used to say, don’t simplify, complexify.

We are pleased to welcome the Rev. Munro Sickafoose back to our congregation as our February pulpit guest. Munro holds a Master of Divinity degree from Starr King School for the Ministry, and is a community minister serving Santa Fe, Taos, and the surrounding areas. His ministry focuses on healing the human relationship with the Earth, and preparing our communities for the many serious challenges we face in the decades ahead.

This week, we join UUs across the country as we tune in to a special worship service presented by the UUA's "Side With Love" campaign.
