Intern minister Cara Fortner asks us to make an intentional commitment to being in relationship with our authentic selves. In these times of great unknown, that genuine self exploration and love can lead to finding ourselves in other human beings.

With all the things we feel we can't control right now, Rev. David Miller asks that we  "put some trust in each other ... in the goodness that the world still has to offer ... beauty, joy, and being vulnerable to both pain and unbelievable moments of grace and love."

Can a crisis be an opportunity? In moments of instability and fear, can we respond with clarity and courage? Can we leverage our resources, relationships, and collective power to defend democracy? Can we do all this and build resilient community? Rev. David A. Miller's sermon asserts that we can do all these things: "This is UUCF. This is who we are." 

In a time of increasing, officially sanctioned exclusion, how do Unitarian Universalists practice an inclusive faith based in love, justice, freedom, democracy, decency, civility, love of neighbor, respect, and basic humanity?

Those who practice the values of Unitarian Universalism are likely feeling the heavy weight of policy decisions made by our government this week. To anchor and support us for the times ahead, it's more important than ever that we listen to, hear, and love each other in this UU community. 

Rev. David Miller asks us to consider that this broken world is calling us to actively practice and live our UUCF mission with intention and passion: To transform ourselves, our community, and the world through acts of love and justice.

Guest preacher Michelle Saville asks: As we look to the future, how can we make sure that our stories - as individuals and as UUs - always put love clearly at the center? Michelle is a seminarian at Wesley Theological Seminary. 

Intern Minister Cara Fortner quotes Iain Thomas in her sermon about surrendering the things that don't serve us: “And every day, the world will drag you by the hand, yelling, 'This is important! And this is important! And this is important! You need to worry about this! And this! And this!' And each day, it’s up to you to yank your hand back, put it on your heart and say, 'No. This is what’s important.'” 

In his Dec. 15 sermon, Rev. David Miller reflects: If we spend too much time consumed with worries of the day - especially about things we cannot control - how do we also stay present for moments of meaning, fulfillment, joy, and awe?

Intern Minister Cara Fortner's sermon urges us to harness our passions, grief, and rage and exercise our prophetic imaginations to call out the wrongs in this world and work toward a more healed and whole expression of beloved community.
