| 8/30/26 |  Rationally Spiritual: UU Foundations Series | Rev. Dr. Daniel Kanter | What does it mean to be rationally spiritual? In the second sermon of our 2026 UU Foundations series, Rev. Dr. Daniel Kanter explores a faith that makes room for questions and welcomes the use of reason. At First Unitarian Church of Dallas, we bring our whole selves to the search for meaning. This sermon considers how our beliefs shape the way we live and asks what our choices reveal about what we value. Rational spirituality means taking our faith seriously enough to question it, examine it, and put it into practice. Topics include: rational spirituality, reason and faith, doubt, ethics, Unitarian Universalism, spiritual life, justice, equity, authenticity 💚 Consider making a one-time contribution to First Church today.

| 8/23/26 |  Genuinely Inclusive: UU Foundations | Rev. T. J. FitzGerald | What does it mean to be genuinely inclusive when Muslims are being targeted because of their faith? In the first sermon of our 2026 UU Foundations series, Rev. T. J. FitzGerald looks at the rise of Islamophobia in North Texas and what it means for religious freedom. He also explores how fear and misinformation can shape the way we see our neighbors. As Unitarian Universalists, we believe that religious freedom belongs to everyone. We can learn more about Islam, speak up when we hear hate, and stand with people whose faith is being targeted. In our faith, genuine inclusion means making room for one another and remembering that we belong together. 💚 Consider making a one-time contribution to First Church today.

| 8/16/26 |  Ask us anything about Unitarian Universalism: Part 3 | Rev. Beth Dana | How do we share what we love about our UU faith with others? In the final sermon of our Questioning series, Rev. Beth Dana responds to questions from our members and friends about evangelism, faith development, self-improvement, and what it means to share the good news of Unitarian Universalism. Questions explored include: What role does self-improvement play in Unitarian Universalism? How do we see value in other people's faith when we're troubled by the ways that faith is expressed? What obligation do we have to persuade others to do justice and see the humanity in one another? What does it mean to evangelize, proselytize, witness, or testify? What is the difference between sharing our faith and trying to convert someone? Does Unitarian Universalism have a history of evangelism? How can we spread awareness of Unitarian Universalism today?

| 8/9/26 |  Ask us anything about Unitarian Universalism: Part 2 | Rev. T. J. FitzGerald | What does it mean to be Unitarian Universalist? In the second sermon in our Questioning series, Rev. T. J. FitzGerald continues answering questions submitted by our members and friends. This time we explore topics including history, identity, values, and evolving traditions of Unitarian Universalism. Questions explored include: How does covenant work at our church? When did the Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA) begin, and how is it doing today? What is the relationship between First Unitarian Church of Dallas and the wider UU movement? When did Unitarian Universalism become an LGBTQ-affirming faith? How much do we teach traditional Jewish and Christian values? What does it mean to learn from religious traditions while also allowing them to evolve? What makes Unitarian Universalism a movement rather than simply a denomination? These questions give us the opportunity to consider what holds a diverse faith community together. 💚 Consider making a one-time contribution to First Church today.

| 8/2/26 |  Ask Us Anything About Unitarian Universalism: Part 1 | Rev. T. J. FitzGerald | What have you always wanted to ask your ministers? This summer, our members and friends shared their biggest questions about faith, worship, theology, and Unitarian Universalism. In this first sermon of our Questioning series, Rev. T. J. FitzGerald responds to some of the congregation's questions including: Why do our ministers wear robes? What does Unitarian Universalism say about death? How can we find comfort in grief? Is there room for belief in a supernatural God in a UU church? How do Unitarian Universalist beliefs compare to other faith traditions? Is making space for different beliefs becoming a radical act? Questioning – Summer Sermon Series, Sundays, August 2 – 16. Our Questioning sermon series is built around the questions you submitted. Asking questions is at the heart of the Unitarian Universalist tradition, and together we'll explore your questions about worship, our faith, our congregation, and living our values in the world. 💚 Consider making a one-time contribution to First Church today.

| 5/24/26 |  Divine Intervention in a Post-Modern World with special guest Cameron Young | With many of our foundations in reason and Enlightenment-era thinking, Unitarian Universalists often struggle with mystery. We're often averse to things we might perceive as stories and beliefs that present as "supernatural." But what if "real" and "not real" is a false binary? Perhaps we're not asking the right questions when it comes to grappling with the unexplainable. About Cameron Young (they/them) Cameron is a lifelong Texan and Unitarian Universalist- prior to assuming the position as Lead for the UUA Southern Region Congregational Life staff, Cameron worked as field staff since 2019. Before joining the UUA, Cameron served as a lifespan religious educator in Fort Worth, Texas. Cameron has a Bachelor of Music from Louisiana State University and a Master of Divinity at Brite Divinity School where they graduated Summa Cum Laude and received the Sexual and Gender Justice certificate and the prestigious Walker Preaching Scholarship- they are currently a candidate for UU Ministry. A professional musician and classically trained singer, Cameron has performed in numerous operas and musicals, is a member and co-founder of the singing group Uptown Carolers and recorded with Grammy award winner Leon Bridges on his debut album.
