Five Smooth Stones 1: Revelation Is Continuous
Reflection by Cindy Darling
Sermon by Rev. Sydney Morris
This month we are exploring the “Five Smooth Stones of Religious Liberalism” as articulated by the 20th century UU theologian, James Luther Adams. Join us for this, the first of the five — “Revelation is continuous.” Our gray hymnal is titled, “Singing the Living Tradition,” what does it mean to be a part of a “living” tradition? How do we keep it alive?
