7 March

Reverend Amanda Aikman

Growth, Change, Anxiety...and Serenity?

Everyone knows that OTHER people resist change! The truth is, we all do. As our communities and our souls grow, pain happens. Anxiety results. Weird backlashes may occur, leaving everyone confused and upset. But serenity can be achieved.....through a simple application of systems theory! This sermon will be illustrated with helpful charts, so sit up close to the pulpit.

Jamal Rahman

The Fragrance of Faith

Join us in exploring universal insights from Islam that can inspire us in our ethical and spiritual lives, regardless of our faith traditions. We shall contemplate stories, sacred verses, and the poetry of Rumi. Jamal is a Muslim Sufi and co-minister at Interfaith Community Church in Ballard.

21 March

Reverend Amanda Aikman

The Psychology of Fundamentalism

What is the psychological process that Christian fundamentalists go through as they become converted; how does this affect their view of the world; why don’t religious liberals seem to be able to offer an equally powerful story; and what is premillennial dispensationalism, and why is it vitally important?

Paul McLean

So, You’re a UU, and…?

Each of us knows how we have come to this place on our spiritual path. This is a place of spiritual freedom. Freedom to choose that spirituality which calls us. Freedom to continuously refine and redefine our spiritual being. Here is a space where the multitude of traditional spiritualities can co-reside. Yet, is Unitarian Universalism merely a revolt against traditional religion or is it the next step in the evolution of human spirituality?
