About Our Sermons

About our Sermons

Sermons are a way to discuss and think about our faith in a public context. On their own, they can be an introduction to some of the views held by Unitarian Universalists.

Below are sermons from our minister, Rev. Meredith Garmon, several lay speakers, our former minister Rev. LoraKimJoyner, and other guest ministers.
