First Unitarian Society of Milwaukee

A Sermon from: October 19, 2008
By: Rev. Hope Engseth

Robert Latham once noted an interesting phenomenon in our religious movement, which is “the simultaneous and contradictory love affair we have with smallness and the desire to be socially transforming…” When we look around us it is obvious that the institutions that truly impact society are large enough to have the resources to draw attention to their values. So what if the all the congregations of the Unitarian Universalist Association made a commitment to grow? Today we join with congregations across the continent in considering the possibilities!

About this sermon Drew says:  “Please join us for the second of a two-part series on Ralph Waldo Emerson.  Even though Emerson resigned his Unitarian pulpit in Boston in 1832, he still went on to single-handedly transform Unitarianism.  Join me as we again go behind the scenes to see how some of Emerson’s most celebrated teachings are directly tied in some surprising ways to his own personal experience and biography.”

Today we start a two-part sermon series on Ralph Waldo Emerson, an American legend. In this first of two services, we will look behind the scenes to Emerson’s personal family life, where we find the roots of his own vocational and personal identity struggle. It is out of this deep, personal struggle that his wonderfully compelling personal philosophy finally emerges – just as ours may.

A Sermon from: September 21, 2008
By: Rev. Craig D. Schwalenberg

Do you believe in a world of scarcity or a world of abundance? Lynne Twist, author of The Soul of Money and founder of the Soul of Money Institute, encourages the celebration of sufficiency. (We have enough. We do enough. We are enough.) What kind of world do we really live in? What kind of world do we really live in? What kind of world do we want to live in?
