This eleven-session course, led by Rev. Dr. John Buehrens — former president of the Unitarian Universalist Association and author of Understanding the Bible: An Introduction (Beacon Press) — offers a guided, unhurried path through the text for people who are curious, doubtful, or simply want a deeper foundation than “Sunday school version” they may have grown up with. No prior knowledge assumed, and no belief required — just a willingness to read closely and ask real questions.

Join Rev. Marcus, writer Courtney Martin, and friends for an exploration of the theme of “hospicing modernity,” drawn from a book of the same name by Vanessa Machado de Oliveira.

So much is breaking down right now in our personal and political lives, but there is also potential for real breakthrough. Our consciousness, our communities, and our climate need us to grow up!

How do we create rituals that anchor our UU faith while expanding our spirituality? Rituals — whether quiet daily practices or shared communal moments — help us mark transitions, hold grief and joy, and stay rooted in what we value most. In this day-long retreat, we’ll explore the role ritual plays across Unitarian Universalism and other spiritual traditions, reflect on the practices already present in our own lives, and experiment with creating new rituals.

UUCB’s covenant names something bold: that building healthy relationships is a spiritual practice. In this session, we’ll move beyond the words of our covenant and into the practice of it. We’ll dig into questions like: How do we communicate honestly and compassionately in the middle of conflict?
