The Paradoxical Commandments – Love Them Anyway

Watch the service HERE. As Easter and Ramadan converge (and with Passover on the horizon), 2024 offers us a valuable opportunity to practice a “free and responsible search for Holy Week.” What is the common thread in the Abrahamic faiths (and in our own tradition) that lifts up universal love and “salvation” in ways that might inspire us non-creedal Unitarian Universalists? In his surprising bestseller, The Paradoxical Commandments – Finding Personal Meaning in a Crazy World, author Kent Keith sums it up this way: “People are illogical, unreasonable, and self-centered. Love them anyway.” We’ll dig deeper on a journey in the wilderness (ancient and modern) with Moses, Jesus, and Mohammed. Rev. Robin Landerman Zucker, preaching, with Worship Leader Cynthia Hopkins. Music from Mary Reese and the Eastrose Choir, under the direction of Tyler Perez. A Time for All Ages from Tara Toler and special holiday family fun.
