  • Belonging In, Belonging To, Rev. Dr. Oscar Sinclair, May 10, 2026
    May 10 2026

    Who, or what, determines belonging? On Mother's Day, we'll talk about what it means to be claimed by another person, a family, or a faith. In a place where all of who we are is welcome, how do we call ourselves to bring our best selves?

    This podcast begins with a reflection by Worship Associate Meg Arnosti.

  • All of Us, Redux, Rev. Dr. Oscar Sinclair, April 26, 2026
    Apr 26 2026

    Coming of Age Sunday celebrates the signature yearlong journey of our ninth grade youth, transitioning from the inherited faith of childhood to the adult journey of faith, and marked by youth sharing their statement of faith or credo. Coming of Age gives us a glimpse of what is to come: a Unitarian Universalism that continues to embrace our vision of a community based not on shared beliefs, but a commitment to each other, and what we can do together.

    This podcast begins with a reflection by Drew Danielson, Coordinator of Youth and Campus Ministries.

  • Open Eyes, Open Heart, Amy Brunell, April 19, 2026
    Apr 19 2026

    What if the most radical spiritual act is looking closer? Religious Naturalism is a faith practice that finds the sacred not beyond the natural world but entwined into the very core of it. It is the practice of interdependence. When we ground ourselves to look closely at what is actually real, something unexpected happens — call it reverence, call it wonder, call it joy. Come ready to see differently.

  • All of Us, Rev. Dr. Oscar Sinclair, April 5, 2026
    Apr 5 2026

    Jesus, in at least one version of the Easter story, died a human being and came back as a community. One vision of resurrection, in our tradition, is a community in which all of us are needed, gathered in a beloved community of mutual care and thriving. As the ice melts and spring comes, what comes next for this place?

  • No Kings, Rev. Dr. Oscar Sinclair, March 29, 2026
    Mar 29 2026

    In the Christian tradition, the Sunday before Easter, Palm Sunday, marks a celebration of Jesus's entrance into Jerusalem, a moment when power and meaning were inverted. The power of the day existed, not with a political establishment or temple, but with a community gathered and proclaiming that a better world was possible. One where all of us are included.

    Let's talk about speculative fiction! When can pop culture and escapism inspire us and when does it offer only empty promises of relief and fulfillment?

  • You Are Not Alone, Amy Brunell, March 8, 2026
    Mar 8 2026

    Choosing to be alone is different from loneliness. Sometimes even in the midst of people, I feel a sense of loneliness. It often surprises me. I like spending time alone, but that is a choice I can make rather than feeling like I'm all alone. Many people at this moment feel all alone. Perhaps modernity has separated us even more? What is our call as Unitarian Universalists to respond to this feeling of loneliness? Let us worship and consider further.

    This podcast begins with a refelction from Worship Associate Meg Arnosti.
