“And the Walls Will Come Tumbling Down”
The Rev. Jan Christian
Unitarian Universalist Church of Ventura
June 11, 2006

On April 30th, I was driving home from District Assembly with my friend and colleague, the Rev. Anne Hines.  We were about 25 miles out of Las Vegas when traffic slowed. We could see that a number of cars had pulled over and we soon saw why. There was a small boy lying on the side of the road. He wasn’t moving. We then saw the van on its side about 50 feet away. We pulled over. Many others had stopped. We had purposely left a little early to beat the rush out of Vegas as well as the late Sunday afternoon traffic in the LA area. I don’t have medical training. Neither does Anne. What could we do? We got out.

Imagine a religion that places more importance on your values than on your religious beliefs (or disbeliefs). Imagine a religion that welcomes your questions and affirms your search for truth and meaning. This is that religion.

Imagine a place where you are accepted as you are and challenged and inspired to be better than you are. Imagine a place that will nurture your child's sense of wonder and awe and help them find truths rather than ask them to memorize the truths of others. This is that kind of place.
