“Atheist Spirituality”

Today’s service will feature a pre-recorded sermon given by the Senior Minister of All Souls Unitarian Church in Tulsa, OK. In this sermon, Rev. Marlin Lavanhar explores movements of the spirit from a Humanist perspective. Many people do not understand the difference between spirituality and belief in God. Most Buddhists, for example, do not believe in God (they are Humanist); and yet, they are world renowned for their teachings of spirituality and spiritual practices, such as meditation. And brain science and evolutionary science has helped explain some of what is understood today as spirituality. This service endeavors to better comprehend the many ways of understanding spirituality.

Rev. Marlin Lavanhar grew up in Highland Park, IL. He was ordained a UU minister in 1999. Since 2000 he has been the Senior Minister of All Souls Unitarian Church in Tulsa, OK. With almost 2,000 members, it is the largest UU church in the United States. In 2010 he received the Humanitarian of the Year Award from the United Nations Office for his work to help end the persecution of gay and lesbian people in Uganda, Africa.
