Sunnyhill Unitarian Universalist

Punk Theology

When most people think of the punk movement, they think of Mohawks, loud, chaotic music, and anarchy. But beneath the safety pins and distortion lies a profound “do-it-yourself” spirituality of resistance. We will explore Punk Theology – an ethos of authenticity, justice, and “questioning everything” that mirrors the radical, countercultural ministries of Jesus, the Buddha, and other spiritual beings.  www.sunnyhill.org

Love and Justice

Almost everything we do as Unitarian Universalists is somehow related to our most enduring values of love and justice. What is the relationship between these two values, and how do we pursue them in an era when both love and justice are often scorned or given short shrift? www.sunnyhill.org

Rooting for the Underdog

There is a human tendency to root for the underdog in any competitive situation. In our current era, many of us find ourselves cast as underdogs as we pursue compassion and justice for all. Why do we root for the underdog, and how does the underdog sometimes win?  www.sunnyhill.org

Fire and ICE

As we have seen in recent weeks, the United States is now a place where someone can be summarily executed on the streets by federal agents for merely observing their actions. There is no due process or justice for the victims and no accountability for the perpetrators of this heinous violence. How are we to meet this moment? www.sunnyhill.org

Beloved Community

MLK popularized philosopher Josiah Royce’s concept of “Beloved Community” as “a global vision in which all people can share in the wealth of the earth.” How might this vision inform the work that is before us now? www.sunnyhill.org
