We are welcoming congregations. We say so on our church buildings, on our banners, in our sermons, and on our websites but does that message really ring true for visitors and newcomers to our faith and our worship services? Sometimes the building and the things and people inside that building can send a different message. What happens to a guest after they step inside is as important to the practice of hospitality as is the initial welcome. To be truly welcoming to people of all identities, backgrounds, and characteristics, a guest is not asked to conform to standardizations but is invited ...

The church was once the place where great art was commissioned, performed, and displayed but Unitarian Universalist churches grew out of the Reformation. The Protestants wanted simple services with little embellishment and that was the tradition the Puritans brought to America. That tradition influenced UU liturgy well into the twentieth century but the times they are a-changin’.

They want to express themselves emotionally as well as ...

In our lives we are often too quick to look for lines that divide the “this” from the “that” but the world we live in does not recognize such clear distinctions. Life and nature exist within a spectrum of complexity rather than in carefully labeled boxes. Science, nature, and spirituality are not pursuits of understanding with contrasting viewpoints and objectives. Each looks at a different aspect of the spectrum of complexity that is the universe. That which we call the divine, or God, is not separate from these things but is both the source and the goal of the continuous evolution...

There are many extraordinary books about the cycles of the moon, which cover phases in minute detail. These are wonderful and offer great help to people who are interested in the deep ...

Baird Spalding played a ground-breaking role when he introduced the Western world to the wonders of a Far East expedition in 1894. The knowledge of "Masters" assisting and guiding humanity in the classic book LIFE AND TEACHING OF THE MASTERS OF THE FAR EAST became legend in metaphysical circles during the first half of the 20th century and continues today as a source of spiritual enlightenment. Spalding and the others were practical in nature and the thought of spiritual masters performing miracles seemed impossible.
