Every Yom Kippur Jews review their spiritual lives, owning the things they’ve done that "miss the mark" of right relationship that’s been set in place by God’s law. What might happen if we take responsibility for missing the mark in our own relationships? What might result?

Rev. Deborah Cayer - Worship Associate: Christine Amabile
Authority is a hot issue for many people, Unitarian Universalists included, perhaps because our faith was born and took shape during the Age of Enlightenment. In our personal lives, we each have had to wrestle with authority. What is authority, where does it come from, and what forms might it take? And along with all else that it is, why is authority a religious issue?

Rev. Deborah Cayer - Worship Associate: Christine Amabile
Many ancient religious traditons tell us that we should set limits on our work, even give our beasts of burden regular days off from the demands and pressing routines of the world. Yet, when our work doesn’t involve physical labor or a tangible product, it can be very difficult to set these limits. Still, why should we do this, and how do we begin?
