Sermon: A Real-World Faith
September 15, 2024
Rev. Abhi Janamanchi

Join us this Sunday as we explore what it means to live a faith that is deeply connected to the real world—the world of our bodies and the body politic. We'll reflect on how our faith calls us to engage with the complexities of power and governance that shape our communal life and how we can embody our beliefs in the world.

September 8, 2024
Rev. Dr. Sofia Betancourt

Sermon: Loving the Anxious Generation
August 25, 2024
Rev. Dayna Edwards

As school begins in the region, let's explore together what Unitarian Universalism has to offer, "the anxious generation." GenZ is both the future and the now of our faith. What lessons can we learn from our past so that we can love this generation into a place of spiritual growth and joy. This week Cedar Lane welcomes UUs from around the region as part of the "Preaching Along the Potomac" series.

Sermon: A Heretical Faith
August 18, 2024
Rev. Abhi Janamanchi

Unitarian Universalism is a faith that proudly embraces its heretical roots—not in defiance, but as a celebration of our tradition of challenging established beliefs and norms. This Sunday, join us for a dynamic, contemporary Soulful Sundown-inspired service where we delve into the bold and transformative journey of Unitarian Universalism. Together, we’ll explore how our heretical spirit continues to fuel our pursuit of justice, compassion, and spiritual growth. The service will be enriched by the soulful sounds of Ben Laurenson & the Yellow Velvet Band.
