The next installment of MidAmerica’s Sermon of the Month series will soon be available. This month’s sermon is “Holding Out Hope” from Reverend Lisa Presley:

We all experience grief—the loss of people, things, ideas, places, and even pandemics cause grief in our lives. Yet we live in a society that tries to make grief disappear. How do we put grief into context, and how do we handle grief, our own and others?

While these sermons were developed primarily for small fellowships, congregations of any size are welcome to use them. Also, although the sermons become available once a month, they can be used any time. You can access recordings of the sermons, PDFs, and lists of recommended readings and hymns by contacting Phil Lund at plund@uua.org.
