The message was delivered on Sunday, October 1, 2023, at All Souls Unitarian Church in Tulsa, Oklahoma, by Rev. Dr. Marlin Lavanhar, Senior Minister. DESCRIPTION People who love the book “To Kill a Mocking Bird” are often shocked and disoriented if they read Harper Lee’s second book, “Go Set a Watchman,” when they discover that Atticus Finch ends up a member of the Ku Klux Klan. We don’t expect that one of the most noble heroes of American literature has a shadow side. Even more surprising is wh...

Is there a limit to mercy, and who decides? And when we don't know how to forgive ourselves, where can we find the permission, or the courage, to do so? In this timely message, Rev. Randy reflects on the challenges of forgiving ourselves, even from terrible things we've done, and the importance of letting mercy courageously enter our lives.

We cannot understand religious authority without understanding our relationship to consent. What is our relationship to our own consent? What does it feel like to be fully bought in? What do we do when we feel someone else is not fully bought in? How do we work with the parts of ourselves that are not bought in when someone imposes on us? Join me at the 10:00 am Worship service as we explore how we can be (as in 1 Corinthians 3:9) co-workers in G*d’s service and at the same time be the field and...

How do we manage the contradictions inherent in our group identities? Can we authentically agree to disagree, or does going along to get along actually fracture our authenticity? The answers to these questions are never static, but it matters that we get ahead of the questions — it’s better to address our civil rights and needs before a civil war becomes necessary!
