As Meagan and Carrie look toward the end of their internships at Community Church of New York, and producer Amy moves on to other pursuits as well, we are taking a moment to reflect on our collective project of Unitarian-Universalist broadcasting.

    Season 3: How Can I Know What To Believe?

    We are coming to the end of our short season of Rev'ing Up, as our hosts Carrie and Meagan prepare to wrap up their internships at Community Church. But! We still have a few more shows to go. Join us for today's episode, where Meagan and Carrie discuss the question, "how can I know what to believe?" from a pastoral and personal perspective. We have had so much fun exploring the Riddle & Mystery curriculum by Richard S. Kimball and encourage you to look into the online resources and perhaps answer a few questions yourself or with a small spiritual community. You can view the full curriculum here: https://www.uua.org/re/tapestry/children/riddle Thoughts on this season of Rev'ing Up?

    Season 3: What Does UU Mean To Me?

    Unitarian-Universalism is an open faith dedicated to a free and responsible search for truth and meaning. As such, the question "what does Unitarian-Universalism mean to me?" is a rich and complex one that many UUs revisit throughout their spiritual journey. Join Carrie and Meagan today to meditate on this question as part of our continuing "Riddle and Mystery" series, based on the UUA Tapestry of Faith curriculum of the same name by Richard S. Kimball. On this episode, you'll hear the many ways this question could be answered as well as learn what Carrie and Meagan have to say on it themselves. This episode references the 7 Principles and 6 Sources of Unitarian-Universalism, plus the 8th Principle which is affirmed and promoted by many UU congregations (including Community Church of New York).  Find more information about the principles and sources here: https://www.uua.org/re/tapestry/adults/river/principles-sources Find more information about the 8th Principle here: https://www.8thprincipleuu.org/ Write back to us at podcast@ccny.org or join the conversation on Facebook: facebook.com/groups/revingup.

    Season 3: What Are We?

    Welcome to the journey on our third season of Rev'ing Up. Each week, our hosts Meagan and Carrie are taking inspiration from one question pulled at random from the Riddle & Mystery curriculum authored by Richard S. Kimball for the Unitarian-Universalist Association. On today's show, Carrie and Meagan discuss the question "What are we?" first from how they would approach answering it as ministers, and secondly how they would answer it as individual spiritual seekers. You won't want to miss this thoughtful exploration of one of life's biggest questions, and there's much more to come this season. Inspired by this episode? Want to share a reflection?

    Season 3: Riddle & Mystery

    Welcome back to Rev'ing Up! As our hosts Carrie and Meagan enter their last semester of seminary and of internship at Community Church of New York, life's big questions are looming on the horizon. Questions like "where do we come from", "what are we", and "where are we going," recur at so many stages of our lives and are always fruitful to examine and consider. For this season of Rev'ing Up, we're drawing inspiration from the Riddle & Mystery curriculum authored by Richard S. Kimball for the Unitarian-Universalist Association Tapestry of Faith curriculum. Each show, Carrie and Meagan will answer one of the questions from this curriculum from their perspective as Unitarian-Universalist ministers in formation and as spiritual seekers. Follow along each week for new episodes and keep in touch with us by emailing us at podcast@ccny.org. The discussion continues on our Listener Community at facebook.com/groups/revingup.
