Welcome to a special Christmas edition of Tiny Pulpit Talks from the Minister’s Study! This week, we’re reflecting on what this season means for Unitarians and Universalists. From the history of the Christmas tree (did you know a Unitarian minister started the tradition in America?) to the deeper meaning behind the birth of light and hope in a messy world, we explore how Christmas invites us to reset our lives with kindness, generosity, and peace. We also discuss the beauty of Christmas services at our church— a time to pause amid the holiday hustle, connect with others, and reflect on the best parts of ourselves. Whether you’re grumpy or glowing when you walk into a Christmas Eve service, you’ll leave with a sense of joy, hope, and peace. Join us as we talk about the rituals, the preparations, and the meaning behind it all. And remember, it’s okay to slow down—leave a few things unwrapped, savor the season, and show love to those around you. We’re here for you this Christmas and can’t wait to see you at the services!
