November 5th, 10:45 a.m. – Lora Powell-Haney: “Living and Giving Generously”

In this month celebrating gratitude, we’ll explore the goodness of generosity and how to maximize the ripple effect of that particular UU value. How might we, together, embrace the change that radical generosity makes in us
and in our way of living, not just our way of giving?

November 12th, 10:45 a.m. – Rev. Paul Britner: “A More Perfect Union”

UUs generally believe in continuing revelation, the idea that truth continues to be revealed to us as we grow, learn, and mature. As we approach the anniversary of the Gettysburg Address (November 19), Paul shows how this speech offers a continuing revelation of our nation and ourselves.

November 19th, 10:45 a.m. – Bob Clegg: “Ethics That Really Matter … or, why I must be an optimist”

A few months ago a UUCC member asked, “Well, what the hell is ethics, anyway!?“ This sermon is the result of a few months of my pondering this question. Of course, her question was rhetorical; and my pondering was more an extended reflection on the ways ethical questions and systems of thinking about them have impacted my life. I invite you to join with me to explore the importance of examining our own lives through the lens of ethics.

November 26th, 10:45 a.m. – JD Stillwater: “Nature’s Scripture: The Interfaith Promise of Science”

Underlying the human world of strife and separation is an oft-neglected landscape of commonality between faiths: the natural world. At precisely the time when our religious and political divisions threaten the existence of life on Earth, science offers a sweeping interfaith vista filled with revelations and insights as spiritually meaningful as ancient scriptures. Read as “scripture,” science offers a common text for all the world’s faiths.
