There once was a person named John Murray. He lived in England, and worked as a minister there. The congregation to which he belonged took religion very seriously. They believed in life after death, but they thought that almost everyone was going to have a terrible, horrible time after they died.Story | By Kelly Weisman Asprooth-Jackson | January 21, 2015 | From WorshipWebTagged as: History, Universalism

Do the gods of one faith take care of the gods of other faiths?" These questions all come from the poem "Faith," by Justin Chin. In the poem, the...Sermon | By Kelly Weisman Asprooth-Jackson | January 21, 2015 | From WorshipWebTagged as: 4th Principle (Truth & Meaning), God, Identity, Psychology, Searching

The world is a slippery sort of thing. It can be hard, very hard, to hold on to all the many pieces of life. In our days on this earth, we may try new ideas, new plans, new relationships, careers or places to live. No matter how many or how few sorts of things we devote our living to, we can be...Sermon | By Kelly Weisman Asprooth-Jackson | January 21, 2015 | From WorshipWebTagged as: 4th Principle (Truth & Meaning), Commitment, Letting Go, Unitarian Universalism
