Rev. Dr. Kikanza Nuri-Robins, preaching; Dr. Susan Hendricks, Worship Associate. It is the Season of Lights! As we mark the beginning of Winter we pause to remember those who remain in the cold and dark. There are many who never see the Light or feel the warmth of community. How do we embody our values for inclusion and justice when the darkness is so overwhelming? Join us for Sunday morning worship in our historic Sanctuary at 18th and Arizona, online or in-person.

Chaplain Michael Eselun, preaching; Judith Martin Straw, Worship Associate. Most of us would prefer tidiness over mess — a place for everything and everything in its place. Sadly, life seldom cooperates. Life is messy—perspectives and realities can collide at such inopportune times. Can we come to peace with mess? Even stand in awe before the jarring mess of life? A popular guest speaker and UCLA oncology chaplain, Michael Eselun will share some reflections with no answers at all. Come hear something new from someone who's spoken from our pulpit over two dozen times. Join us for Sunday morning worship in our historic Sanctuary at 18th and Arizona, online or in-person.
