Second Sunday Spirit in Practice – Life Practices: We continue our sermon series on spiritual practices that help us deepen our UU identity, faith, spirituality, and ethics with a reflection on “Life Practices” — perhaps one of the most important practices we’ve considered together: paying attention to the sacred in the ordinary, each and every day.
