Feeling left out of UUA’s General Assembly? Want to find out what UUs are talking about? Perhaps reap a bit of wisdom? Rev. Julie has chosen a few of the on-demand workshops for us to watch together and talk about. Bring a bag-supper or some snacks to share. We’ll gather at UUCW at 6 pm, start the video around 6:15, and spend some time in conversation after. (Most of the sessions are 60-90 minutes) No need to RSVP. Come to one or all!
Monday, July 24, 6 pm – A History of How God Became Optional – Unitarian Universalist Studies Network
The talk will address how liberal Quakers, Unitarians, and Reconstructionist Judaism adapted to rapidly changing cultural and scientific developments in the early 20th century by redefining what it meant to be religious, making theism optional. Special attention will be given to the role of the Unitarian-Theist controversy in this history. Speaker: Dr. Isaac Barnes May
