I thought I'd take this time and space to acknowledge a ministerial pet-peeve of mine. This is the misconception by many that Unitarian Universalism doesn't have its own theology. The truth is that it has, I think, a rich and life-giving theology, with which our own personal theologies experience varying degrees of synchronicity. So, I'm on a mission to have folks begin to understand that this wasn't a denomination that suddenly appeared in the 1960's and that throws up it's hands saying, "Whatever...it's all good." To that end, I've been trying to introduce resources for exploring the richness of our tradition both historically and theologically.
My colleague, Rev. Thom Belote, has generously posted lectures from a UU History seminar he put together for lay leaders as a part of the Midewest leadership school. I invite you to read a couple and let me know if they bring up questions for you.
