Simple Answers to Big Questions | Rev. Dr. Marlin Lavanhar | All Souls Unitarian Church (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What if the real test of a belief has nothing to do with whether it's true and everything to do with what it makes of you? Not whether it's the right religion, the right God, the right set of rules. Whether it makes you more loving or more judgmental. Whether it holds you up on your worst day or only sounds good on your best one. Whether it gives you the courage to be honest, even when honesty costs you something. This message isn't interested in which belief is correct. It's interested in what
Beauty in a Spot of Danger | Rev. Dr. Nicole Kirk | All Souls Unitarian Church (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The world is dangerous and beautiful at the same time. Most of us only have the bandwidth to notice one — so we either rush past the hard parts, or shrink our whole lives down to avoid them.Writer Annie Dillard warned against exactly that: living an "itsy bitsy" life to dodge how wild and extravagant the world really is. Rev. Dr. Nicole Kirk pairs that challenge with the story of Kate Bowler, told at 35 that she had two years to live, and a friend's gentle instruction — don't skip to the end. Ki
Belonging Changes Everything | Rev. Dr. Marlin Lavanhar | All Souls Unitarian Church (opens the original)
Read excerpt
There's a difference between fitting in and belonging — and most of us have spent years mastering the wrong one. Fitting in means changing yourself to be accepted. Belonging means being accepted exactly as you are.This message argues that real community isn't built by people performing that they have it all together. It's built by people willing to show up as their actual, unfiltered selves — and makes the case that doing so isn't a risk to resilience. It's the source of it. QUESTIONS TO SIT WIT
'LOSING FAITH' | Rev. Randy Lewis | All Souls Unitarian Church (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The message was delivered on Sunday, September 6, 2026, at All Souls Unitarian Church in Tulsa, Oklahoma, by Rev. Randy Lewis, Assistant Minister. Description: What remains when the beliefs that once held your life together no longer fit? Letting go can feel like losing meaning itself, especially when certainty has been mistaken for faith. But the collapse of an old answer may uncover something more honest and sustaining. Sometimes the way forward begins with what we are willing to release. Watc
Living In Dolly's America | Rev. Dr. Marlin Lavanhar | All Souls Unitarian Church (opens the original)
Read excerpt
"A blend of Mother Goose, Cinderella, and the local hooker." That's how Dolly Parton once described her own look — and her willingness to laugh at herself, before anyone else could, became part of why an entire country trusted her. Drawing on the life, faith, and radical kindness of Dolly Parton, this message makes the case that the way she loved people — without judgment, without conditions, across every divide this country has — isn't just a nice tribute. It's a blueprint for a kind of communi
