August 3rd: Linda Crawford presents “Being a UU in the Bible Belt: What do we do with our Anger?”
BBUUC is an island of liberal religious and social values in a sea of fundamentalism. The result, for some of us, (including your speaker today), has been frustration and anger. How is that working for us?
Led By: Jennifer Stokes, Accompanied By: Marilyn Smart
About Our Speaker:
Linda and her husband Dale have been members of BBUUC for about six years. This is the first church home Linda has ever had, and she is very grateful to it, and to all of her church friends. She has participated on the worship committee ever since she joined the church, and has also served as lay leader, and on the aesthetics committee. Linda’s academic background is in art history, and she loves sharing this passion with others. She is also an avid baker and afternoon tea indulger.
One of Linda’s greatest joys is researching, composing and delivering sermons. Most of her sermons reflect a problem she is grappling with, and this sermon is no exception.
