Worship
Worship Artist
Worship connects, challenges, comforts, and inspires us to lead lives that are more just, loving, and whole. It is sacred, worthy work. I feel called to the liturgical arts of preaching and designing the arc of worship.
I enjoy leading informal and formal, traditional and innovative, and low tech and high tech services. I aim to co-create services that are coherent and cohesive and build towards a theme or message that is relevant to this particular time for a congregation and/or for world events. My topics are inspired by the pressing issues of our time, world religions, holidays, history, theology, spiritual practices, UU identity, the sciences, and the arts.
While I receive many compliments about services, I am always looking to grow as a worship leader. I also enjoy mentoring others in developing their skills for creating services. This time of social distancing has offered a potent opportunity to reimagine how we worship and to experiment with emerging possibilities.
