Quick! What's Unitarian Universalism? Here is a diverse collection of brief responses to that question from Peter Morales, Forest Church, Andrea Lerner and other notable UUs. If you are wondering what UUism is, this may serve as an intriguing introduction. If you are a UU, perhaps this will help inspire your own responses.
In Open Source Church: Making Room for the Wisdom of All, Landon Whitsitt argues that Wikipedia, the encyclopedia that anyone can see and edit, might be the most instructive model available to help congregations develop leaders and structures that can meet the challenges presented by our changing world. Its success depends, he demonstrates, not on the views of select experts but on the collective wisdom of crowds.
These multigenerational worship services draw from folk tales, children's literature and everyday living. Hewitt offers new ways to celebrate the beginning of the church year, Christmas, coming of age and Earth Day, as well as services for any time, to engage children through elders. Each service is a whole body experience, inviting members to participate and engage the mind, heart and spirit. These fully scripted services include recommended hymns, readings and props plus quick, at-a-glance descriptions that rate each service based on the preparation time required.
