Rev. John Cullinan | The Unitarian Church of Los Alamos, New Mexico | 03/23/2008 |
| Salvation: For What and by Whom? For orthodox Christians, Easter celebrates the risen Christ as a sure sign of the defeat of death and guaranteed salvation. For most Westerners, therefore, "salvation" has come to mean one thing: an eternity of care-free living in the company of God. However, this narrow reading of the term may make it difficult to perceive other ways in which we might individually or collectively be "saved." |

Rev. Dr. Randolph W.B. Becker | Unitarian Universalist Fellowshop, Key West. FL | 03/23/2008 |
| Was Jesus Too Liberal? Too Human? Too Divine? On Palm Sunday, we concentrate on the prophet Jesus, upon whose teachings has risen the religion with the most adherents in the world, but who still can’t seem to agree on doctrines and thus focus on thoughts that divide rather than the love that unites. |
Rev. Arthur G. Severance | East Shore Unitarian Universalist Church, Kirtland, OH | 03/16/2008 |

Rev. Marlin Lavanhar and Rev. Tamara Lebak | All Souls Unitarian Church of Tulsa | 03/16/2008 |

Rev. John Cullinan | The Unitarian Church of Los Alamos, New Mexico | 03/16/2008 |
| Who’s The Decider? The fifth Principle of Unitarian Universalism guarantees freedom of individual conscience and encourages UUs to practice and promote democracy both within and beyond our movement. But how absolute a standard are we talking about here? Are there instances where, as a religion or as a society, we might want to embrace a different approach to decision-making? |
Michael A. Schuler | First Unitarian Society of Madison (WI) | 03/16/2008 |

Rev John Rex | East Shore Unitarian Universalist Church, Kirtland, OH | 03/09/2008 |
| A Plain Old Ordinary Day at BRUU This year's stewardship campaign theme is "Keeping the Lights On," and this sermon will reflect on all the everyday miracles that happen here among us at BRUU. A plain old ordinary day here is a magnificent thing indeed. |
Reverend Nancy McDonald Ladd | Bull Run Unitarian Universalists, Manassas, Virginia | 03/09/2008 |
| Being Good, Staying Good Many of you are familiar with Harold Kushner's classic "When Bad Things Happen to Good People." But what about the good things that happen to good people? Living a good life and staying good may be easier than you thought. |

| That Troublesome "L" Word "Liberal." It is perhaps one of the most reviled and polarizing words in this country today. For some, it's a dirty word, for others, a badge of honor. Sadly, amidst the fray, we have lost the true depth of meaning of the word. What does it mean to be religiously liberal? Politically liberal? Aren't they one and the same? Can I be one and not the other? Let's take a long, hard look at a troublesome little word. |
Rev. John Cullinan | The Unitarian Church of Los Alamos, New Mexico | 03/09/2008 |
| A Date With Destiny Mythology and/or religion frequently suggest that individuals (Frodo Baggins), communities (the Jews) and countries (the United States) are assigned a role in history that they cannot easily evade and are morally obliged to fulfill. Is there merit in that idea? Are we free to shape our own destiny, or are we players working from someone else’s script? |
Michael A. Schuler | First Unitarian Society of Madison (WI) | 03/09/2008 |
| Gossip, Rumor, and Innuendo | Rev. Kathy Schmitz | Pathways Church, Southlake, TX | 03/09/2008 |
| Healing Silence | Rev. Kim K. Crawford Harvie | Arlington Street Church, Boston, MA | 03/09/2008 |
| The Burning Bush: The Experience of Awe What is there, in your life, that is so compelling that its intensity burns into your spirit but its depth means it can never be exhausted? Knowing how to recognize the awesome in life is another clue of how we might live our lives. |
Rev. Dr. Randolph W.B. Becker | Unitarian Universalist Fellowshop, Key West. FL | 03/09/2008 |
| A Liberal Look at the Bible Many of us come out of traditional religion, especially some form of Christianity or Judaism, and how the Bible was interpreted varied for all of us. Fundamentalism of all religion and a conservative, literal, and what I would describe as hateful, seems to be what makes the news. A liberal, UU, and personal look at the different ways of looking at ancient scripture. |
Rev Art Severance | East Shore Unitarian Universalist Church, Kirtland, OH | 03/02/2008 |
| When It Don't Come Easy |
Rev. Marlin Lavanhar | All Souls Unitarian Church of Tulsa | 03/02/2008 |
| Religion in Civil Society From civil rights and environmental justice to hot-button issues like abortion and cloning, religion has long acted as a force to change or maintain society in America. This sermon will look at the highs and the lows of sacred power in the secular world. |

| The One and the Many | Rev. Charles Blustein Ortman | The Unitarian Church of Montclair (NJ) | 03/02/2008 |
| But What Makes it Spiritual? Critics and seekers alike often find Unitarian Universalism to be a tradition lacking in "spiritual depth." Let us consider yet another definition of "spirituality" that focuses as much on outcomes as upon practice |
Karen Gustafson | First Unitarian Society of Madison (WI) | 03/02/2008 |
| Vision and Strength | Rev. Kathy Schmitz | Pathways Church, Southlake, TX | 03/02/2008 |
| In the Beginning: Embodying Creation Every religious tradition has a story of creation AND every religious tradition also has a theology of existence. How the stories and theologies match, or don?t match, can give us clues of how we might live our own lives. |
