First Unitarian Society of Milwaukee

A Sermon from: May 31, 2009
By: Rev. Andrew C. Kennedy

Long ago, that faithful Unitarian prophet of old, Ralph Waldo Emerson, admonished us that the age of inspiration is not past.  Revelation, he insisted, is not revealed and sealed, once and for all, in some ancient biblical era.  Rather, Emerson charged us to find the “holy” in our own times.  So, drawing on Thich Nhat Hanh, Barbara Cawthorne, Kathleen Norris, Macrina Widerkehr, and David Steindl-Rast, please join us as we seek to mindfully glimpse the “holy” in the ordinary.

Join the Reverend Drew Kennedy as he reflects on Memorial Day and a deceptively simple, unspoken, but critically important covenant we make with our soldiers as they go off to war.

A Sermon from: May 10, 2009
By: Rev. Andrew C. Kennedy

Drew says about this sermon, “‘Birthing’ is an experience with which we are all involved whether we have experienced it as a child, as a parent, or as a grandparent. Moreover, it is not, finally, an issue of whether we want, or are even able, to bear children. Giving birth, I will suggest this Sunday, is a primordial, paradigmatic experience both ancient and powerful with which we are all at least spiritually, if not physically, involved. So, please join me this Sunday, and the children again for the first portion of the service, as we dedicate and welcome some of our newest young lives into our midst.”

A Sermon from: May 3, 2009
By: Rev. Dena McPhetres

The Reverend Dena McPhetres says this about her topic: “Aging theories are changing rapidly and mid-life seems to span more and more decades accordingly, all the way from the mid-twenties to the mid-sixties. What happens to us on our spiritual journey during mid-life? This sermon appeals to both young adults and elders, as well as those of us who are traveling through those long middle years.”
