New Houses from Old Bricks – Service on Demand 05-28-2023

"New Houses from Old Bricks"

May 28, 2023

Sermon Description:
The ways we make meaning for ourselves out of our own experience is both a creative process and one that’s necessary for living out the 4th UU principle, “a free and responsible search for truth and meaning.” We’ll explore some ways we make our own meaning using older wisdom traditions, inspired by the autobiography of Rebecca Cox Jackson, an African-American woman who founded a lesser-known, urban Shaker community in mid-19th century Philadelphia. Remembering Ralph Waldo Emerson’s birthday (May 25), we’ll read him alongside Jackson and consider whether creative meaning-making can be a communal process as well as an individual one.
