July 13: Rev. Jack Ford will present “Leftovers”
“Left is the new Right”: that’s my slogan. Being left-handed, I have often been called a ‘south-paw’. And since I am liberal, that makes me a left-winged south-paw. Jack Fincher calls Left-Handers ‘one of the last minorities with no organization, no power, and no sense of common identity’. Neither his book nor my sermon offers to change any of that. But they both take a light-hearted look at ‘leaning left’.
As Unitarian Universalists, we are all Left-Leaning people, right? At least when it comes to religion, and to many social issues. Call me hopelessly right-brained, but I think Leaning Left is the right thing to do. (Or am I way out in left field on this?)
Led by Joann Carollo • Accompanied by Gary Smart
