Año Viejos UUMAN Unitarian Universalist Metro Atlanta North Church podcast

33:07

This week's service focuses on UU-affiliated Mountain Retreat and Learning Center, which has been in operation since 1979. Steph Anderson's sermon (yes, it IS a sermon! If you're at the pulpit on Sunday morning, you're delivering a sermon) it serves as an explainer to us Roswell congregants. While theirs is not a church home as such, it is a place people gather to call home if only for a few days, in a natural setting.

Duncan Teague, our guest in the pulpit, recommends we savor a jelly donut while considering the wisdom of Albert Camus: "Eternity was here, while I was waiting on it." The sabbatical is similar to a school's spring break, but we often miss the fact that not only is the minister gone to explore, like Rev. Dave Dunn, but also the congregation has an opportunity to also explore collectively, how we want our ministry to look and feel while the leader is away.

Affirming Our Worth 35:27

We shouldn't HAVE to affirm our own worth, but given the silos we're forced into as citizen-consumers, sometimes it's something to consider. Our guest preacher, Lylah Lockridge, offers the example of airline perk programs as emblematic of the perceived social class we're assigned. Or, as she puts it, "Those who are unable or unwilling to pay a higher price receive no perks....If you are the last to board, you are received like the closing credits in a sad movie." (Also, a "little secret." Belief in our inherent worth and dignity IS heaven.) There's also the latest announcements and good news from Stewardship.

Dismantling Racism Requires Overcoming Capitalism 42:33

Our guest minister, the Reverend Jonathan Rogers, guides us through our process of formally committing ourselves to "dismantle racism in our selves and in our institutions." His sermon traces racism's history on our continent, and how we have historically enshrined it in our governing documents and practices, can give us some clues about its origins and causes. But before that, you'll hear from a newly-minted member (albeit long-ish-time attendee and volunteer!) on the importance of pledging; plus our readings authored by Rev.

"What does the midwife tell us to do?" "Breathe! And then? Push!"

How can we place love at the center? Is Article II's proposal the way to accomplish this? What can we learn from our own denomination's statement of "Rule and Practice" dating back to the year 1790? Consider, too, that "the mission of the church is not to meet our needs. The mission of the church is to heal our worlds," per Rev. Dr. Marilyn Sewell, as quoted in this episode's call to worship. That's a tough mission statement to embrace, but it's relevant to our journey toward acceptance, or lack thereof, of Article II.

Thomas Starr King 38:30

Abraham Lincoln credited Unitarian and Universalist minister Thomas Starr King with saving California for the Union. On the 199th anniversary of his birth, we review his most extraordinary life that took him from New England to California. And learn how the state honors him as a beloved figure, and how, more recently, right wing elements have worked to erase him from our nation's history. All piano accompaniment by Alex Pietsch.

Sounds of the Season 16:44

For this podcast episode, the "Sounds" are mostly spoken rather than sung or performed instrumentally, alas, due to copyright issues with musical compositions and arrangements in a downloadable podcast. As always, the amazing music can be heard in the unedited YouTube video created from our Livestreamed services, at our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vCrD1sqb7SE What you will hear are some deservedly happy-clappy announcements--including some clever volunteer coercion!--and an original, musical meditation.

Native American Stories 9:48

1 year тому9:48

9:48

These native stories shared in service, while engaging and occasionally hilarious, are individually copyright protected, some from decades past. Thus it is doubtful we'd be able to secure copyright protections any time soon, if ever. Thus these tales (one a tale of tails) cannot be included in this podcast although, as always, you can hear and see what went on by visiting our YouTube channel. So what remains for your ears this week, will be announcements and musical accompaniment. Perhaps whetting one's appetite for a longer-form episode to come the following week. (That said, you will be rewarded with just a sniff of the last tail-tale, as we bid one another to go in peace.) “Native Warrior”, and all original musical accompaniment, composed by Music Director Alex Pietsch.

For those who've never partaken in person, this annual communion is an opportunity to not just partake of exquisitely scrumptious baked goods, but to hear the stories behind the heat + chemistry. From this hemisphere and well beyond. And, this year, to learn, along with our youngest, why it's NOT coincidental that "humus" sounds a lot like "human."

While our service focused on security procedures on the UUMAN campus, we elected not to livestream that portion of the service to the online public. However, we wanted to share this month's 50/50 recipient, North Fulton Community Charities. We've included a presentation by NFCC's Sharri Morgan, who explains their mission, our church's longtime connection with the organization, and how the Michelin Man is involved in fashion decisions.

You Are Not Alone 18:34

Today's service audio focuses on how, when you get right down to it, we never do anything alone - success, failure, joy, grief. We celebrate our joys and hold one another in our grief. How do we support one another? Sometimes it's a "parking lot angel," as you'll hear. And another way we support one another is through the acceptance of new members to our beloved community. This episode begins with a new member ceremony, before the service readings. "A Forest Cathedral" and "Autumn's Breath" composed by Music Director Alex Pietsch. Copyright 2023. All rights reserved.

"May we remember the very best of who they were, and what they embodied. And may we embody that essence in our lives." Due to the intensely personal nature of this service, and to potential privacy and security concerns of a downloadable podcast episode, the specific reading of names of those who've died in the last year has been cut from this particular audio. However, you will hear our tribute to those we've lost, along with a call-and-response from minister to congregation. As always, you'll hear our typical Sunday service introductions, visitors checking in, Harvest Moon Auction information dramatically delivered by its co-chair, and bits of merriment in anticipation of a Fall Festival just about to unfold after the grown-ups emerge from the sanctuary. The poetry reading, "Making a Fist", is by Naomi Shihab Nye. Original music heard in today's podcast as musical interludes performed and composed by Music Director Alex Pietsch. Copyright 2023.

Start Making Sense 39:22

How did we get to believe that “making sense” is an intellectual, rather than a sensual, thing? Things “make sense” not when we engage the mind but when we engage the senses. And re-engaging our senses may well be at the root of our salvation. You'll also hear a Child Dedication (welcome, Koda!), upcoming event announcements, and original compositions performed by Music Director Alex Pietsch.
