American Struggle: Democracy, Dissent, and the Pursuit of a More Perfect Union, An Anthology” by Jon Mecham - Thurs. July 30, 6:30-8:00pm - Eddy Room

“A House of Hope: The Promise of Progressive Religion” - Thurs. Aug. 27 6:30-8:00pm - Eddy Room John Buehrens & Rebecca Ann Parker offer an inspiring introduction to liberal theology. The book explores how liberal and progressive religious traditions—particularly Unitarian Universalism—offer a theology focused on love, justice, and human dignity, rather than dogma or fear.

“The Dignity of Difference: How to Avoid the Clash of Civilizations” - Thurs. Sept. 24 6:30-8:00pm - Eddy Room Author Jonathan Sacks argues that humanity must reject the inevitable "clash of civilizations" by reframing religious differences. He asserts that globalism's ultimate challenge is to celebrate diversity rather than seeking universal uniformity, transforming potential religious conflicts into opportunities for mutual respect.

“The Argument for Universalism” In Person or Online
July 19, 2026 11:00 am Rev. Dr. Kent Doss

In 1804, the Universalist Rev. Hosea Ballou published “A Treatise on Atonement,” a detailed rebuttal of the belief that Jesus was sacrificed to atone for the sins of humanity. This Sunday, we review Ballou’s ideas, and we consider what a generous, forgiving, universal Love means for UUs today.
