In this time of deep darkness, when democracy is crumbling, this sermon invites us to stay both woke and awake — to combine outward action for justice with inner spiritual clarity.

Carol Flake is a lover of life and a seeker of wisdom. In this service, she explores what happens when we find ourselves falling off the edges of our maps of the known world. Theologians say that we are entering a Second Axial Age. Old religions are faltering in a globally interconnected world. She asks, “What wants to come through us now?” We need to live lives anchored at the intersection of science, religion, and psychology, in love and compassion for all on earth. Carol

explores some of the dragons that we find when we put away our Old Maps and get back on the Path.

What fuels our commitment to a better world when the journey gets heavy? This Sunday, our guest speaker, Rev. Jim Moseley, will explore the ancient story of Jeremiah, a prophet who wrestled deeply with despair and social isolation, yet found an unstoppable inner spark that compelled him to keep speaking truth to power. Join us as we reflect on how we can sustain our own passion, honor our doubts, and find collective strength to stand for justice in challenging times.

The UUTC Spiritual Explorers group meets on Thursdays to consider the role of World Religions in helping people find meaning and purpose in life.  

Our next book discussion begins May 7th from 2 to 3:30 and we’ll meet for eight Thursdays before taking a summer break.  

“Healing the Heart of Democracy: The courage to create a politics worthy of the human spirit,” by Quaker teacher Parker Palmer, is the book we will be studying. The book has a new edition in 2024 complete with a study guide.  

We recognize that true spirituality must be expressed consistently and in community. Christianity, Islam, Judaism, and other major world religions are committed to compassion and hospitality and we practice that in our group. New members are always welcome.
