  • In a living room with a lit Christmas tree and gifts, a woman sits with closed eyes, slumped, with her hand on her forehead as if she's disappointed or frustrated.
    Help me feel the calm in the storm—even the ones of my own making.

  • Prehistoric stenciled outlines of many overlapping hands on a cave wall at Cueva de las Manos, Argentina. Some hands appear in ochre on pale rock, and others are white against darker rock.
    We sang, we loved, we gazed up at the mysterious stars. We tried to understand what had created us, why we were here, why we suffered and how to keep what was precious.

  • Against a dark blue sky, a sheet of strung lights is blurred, creating a golden, net-like appearance.

  • A wooden crate holding vegetables like carrots, peppers, and leeks is carried between two people: each person is holding one handle, outdoors, as they walk through a field or garden.
    My grandparents are now ancestors, but they taught me about creating a home of abundance.

  • A white woman with long reddish-brown hair holds an iPhone up to her face with two hands, perhaps taking a photo. The phone blocks most of her face from view, except for the corners of her sunglasses. Behind her, blurry, we see a mostly empty street or plaza.
    A call to worship is secretly a call to focus our attention. Choosing to focus our attention is countercultural.

  • A low-angle shot of a wet gutter and curb in a city at nighttime. We see the colorful, out-of-focus lights of cars, traffic light, and building windows, as well as their reflections on the damp ground.
    The sacred does not hide from the world—it lives in it.

    Not every sanctuary has walls—some are stitched together from longing, kindness, and sheer survival.

  • A heart, carved into the light grey wood of a tree trunk, with its interior dyed pale red.
    You deserve a circle that sees your scars and your strength, your doubts and your radiance, and holds them all with care.

  • A lecturer with graying hair speaks at a lectern, holding a page of notes, his back to the camera. In the background, blurred, is a bank of seats filled with audience members.
    Whether they walk, shuffle, or wheel themselves into my life, every person I interact with matters.

  • A table covered with a red tablecloth and a purple tablecloth. The front is labeled with the word PRIDE, with each letter handwritten on a separate piece of letter paper. On the center of the table is a clear box filled with large serving spoons. The rest of the table is completely covered by many loose spoons. Among the spoons are many handwritten signs labeled with types of disabilities: “cognitive,” “developmental,” “sensory,” “hidden,” and so on.
    This two-part ritual, inspired by the disability justice concept of spoon theory, includes a litany of things that can “take spoons away” from people. Part of the WorshipWeb collection “Worth and Dignity of All Bodies.”

  • Indoors, in front of a sunny window and amid houseplants, a light-skinned Black person wearing glasses sits cross-legged, eyes closed, as if meditating.
    I have a right to feel scared and hurt, and angry. Yet I refuse to let hate calcify my heart.

  • Sitting on a couch, with only their torso and upper legs visible, a dark-skinned person wearing jeans and an olive T-shirt leans forward with their elbows on their knees. In one hand they dangle a military dog tag, and a similar tag is visible hanging from their neck outside of their T-shirt.
    As citizens of this democratic nation, we’re all complicit in its wars and conflicts.

  • A middle-aged white woman with short, chemically-assisted red hair, wearing a shawl of colorful stripes. She is sitting on the stone steps of a church.
    This service will reflect on two contemporary stories about the intermingling of the sacred and the secular, inviting us to consider how we welcome mystery and wonder, within and beyond sanctuaries on Sunday morning.

  • An woman wearing an olive T-shirt and camo pants, suggesting a military veteran, leans forward in her chair, hands together, towards a counselor who's seated with a clipboard of notes on her lap.
    Just as you and I are more than our suffering, so too is each veteran more than their suffering.

  • From behind, from the neck down, a military service member is shown wearing camouflage holds his rucksack in front of a house's doorstep. An American flag hangs next to the front door.
    My Universalist theology guides me to remind our veterans that they are not defined by their worst moment or action.
