Even Stranger Things

The sci-fi/fantasy television series “Stranger Things,” set in the 1980s, explores a number of themes relevant to our own times and the challenges we are facing. What might it say to us about countering authoritarianism with radical solidarity? www.sunnyhill.org

Dry Bones & Empty Tombs

One of the central themes of Easter is the ultimate triumph of life over death. Even when everything around us seems dry as dead bones and dark as the tomb, the potential of resurrection of various kinds still exists for us as individuals and for us as a society. How do we prepare to “rise up” when the time comes?  www.sunnyhill.org

Walking to Jerusalem

Today’s sermon is titled “Walking to Jerusalem.” On Palm Sunday, Jesus’s Passover pilgrimage brought him to Jerusalem. What does it mean to go on a pilgrimage? How do our own individual journeys (as well as our collective journey) relate to the pilgrimages and the stories of Passover? www.sunnyhill.org

Love Beyond Belief

As UUs, we honor any and all beliefs that respect the inherent worth of every individual while recognizing that we are in an interdependent relationship with one another and with the earth. But beneath and beyond any and all beliefs there is a more important commitment to a love that transcends belief. www.sunnyhill.org

Solidarity: Ruth and Naomi

The biblical story of Ruth and Naomi offers a compelling example of true solidarity and what it means to be committed to being on the side of others who come from backgrounds different from our own but with whom our ultimate destiny is intertwined. This service will examine the meaning of this story for us today. www.sunnyhill.org
