We will be continuing our discussion of the UUA Common Read — Reclaiming Prophetic Witness: Liberal Religion in the Public Square by Paul Rasor.
Rasor makes the point that this is a crucial time for a liberal religious voice that has gone missing from public dialogue.
For this week, please read the Introduction and the first two chapters. We have 3 paper copies of the book still available at church and we can order more if needed. You may email Susan Caldwell to claim a copy and pay on Sunday morning.
Rev. Barbara Jarrell requests that all church members read this book — whether you’re taking the class or not. She also says:
