Category: Minister’s Messages

Columns I write for my church newsletter. Posts since August, 2022 were written for the Unitarian Universalists Church of Studio City. Earlier posts were written for the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Kern County, Bakersfield (August 2021 to August 2022) under the title, “In Fellowship”, or for the Long Beach Unitarian Universalist Church (January 2018 to June 2020) under the title, “Go Through”.
