In this sermon, Lauren explores white privilege, colonial capitalism, and the moral urgency to resist with Love, Compassion and Honesty. Through personal stories, Indigenous wisdom, prophetic voices, and spiritual reflection, she calls the congregation toward deeper awareness, solidarity, and shared commitment to justice grounded in love.
In a wisdom tale, Buddhist monk, Thich Nhat Hanh tells us the bump in the road doesn’t create what spills out of the cup we are carrying. Instead it reveals what is already inside. The question is not about who bumps us rather, “What am I carrying in my cup?”
Rev. Linda will be leading a “Wellspring” program that is a year-long opportunity to deepen your spiritual life along with other friends and members. The program relies on our six UU Sources as a framework and includes spiritual practices, deep listening, and reflection with the group, as well as personal work on your own. If you’re interested in learning more about participating in this year-long program, there will be an information session after worship service on Sunday, August 28 in the sanctuary.
