The Rev. Michael Schuler, Pulpit Exchange Guest

Of his topic, Michael writes, “What does it take to make a difference in the world?  Some would say history is made by individuals exercising exceptional power or exhibiting uncommon brilliance.  Others contend that ‘being in the right place at the right time’ is what matters.  Is ‘greatness’ a matter of timing or of talent?  Do we give the supreme souls of the human species too much or too little credit?”

The first source from which our living tradition draws is “direct experience of that transcending mystery and wonder, affirmed in all cultures, which moves us to a renewal of the spirit and an openness to the forces that create and uphold life.”  From mystics of various religious traditions, the Transcendentalists, and scientists, this service will explore the varieties of expression of this awe and wonder.

A sermon by the Rev. Linda Hansen


August 23, 2009


We live with lots of pressures. Perhaps none harder on our sense of self or on our ability to create community than the pressure to be #1.  What might it mean to have as our ideal instead that we be “good enough”?
