December = Mystery
The ancients told stories and wrote parables to explain what they had found when exploring the mystery. That is all religion is: people wondering about where we came from, why we are here, and where we go after we die. The Bible, the Eightfold Path of Buddhism, the Seven Principles of the Unitarian Universalist tradition—all are just ideas people have about what has made life meaningful. What you think about holiness is just as valid and just as true. Beloved, there is nothing to be afraid of.
December 3 Spiritual Growth: Rev. Ted Tollefson of Red Wing UU “The Faces of Mystery” Many religions speak about “Mystery” and our lives sometimes open into moments of astonishing beauty. How is Mystery woven into our lives, our search for truth and meaning and also our moments of wonder and delight? Join us for reflections, a poem or two and some lovely music; plus time for shared reflections and conversation.
