Shall We Give God a Second Chance
Jun 30 @ 10:00 am – 11:00 am

Sunday, June 30, 10 a.m., “Shall We Give God a Second Chance,” Rev. Dave Hunter with Worship Associate Jean Charles coordinating: Many Unitarian Universalists have ambivalent feelings about God.  The God who watches over humanity and intervenes in our affairs from time to time seems implausible, but are there other images of God that are worth consideration? Is “God” still a useful word for you? How would you describe God… the God you believe in, or don’t?

Note: It’s also Queer Youth of Faith Day!

After 25 years in the Voting Section of the Justice Department, he retired in 2000 to become a full time student for the ministry.

Sharing Our Stories

Each of us at UUSD has a different story to tell about how we found a spiritual home here. A few of us are life-long UUs but most are not, having come from a variety of other religious backgrounds or from no particular place of faith. Whatever our journey, sharing the stories of the paths we took helps connect us to each other and to the shared journey we are now making.
