Mother’s Day Sermon: Spiritual Curiosity Begins with the Love and Safety from a Mom.

I was so excited to speak at my former church in Waukesha that I didn’t realize it was Mother’s Day. Even though my mother has no idea what Mother’s Day is or when it is, I still visit her so we can do something special together. This visit happened, but it was delayed to a dinner instead of a Mother’s Day brunch.

Here is a description of my sermon I wrote for the weekly email announcement.

“Building off the belief that curiosity is an innate sense of exploration that children are born with and that love and safety produce an environment where curious adventures are encouraged, Adele Revoy will examine how one's own curiosity can be linked to the spiritual and non-spiritual ways in people's lives. Unitarian Universalism allows for (encourages) spiritual curiosity. The ideas of questioning, seeking, proving, and disproving are embraced when one seeks to find one's spirituality or discern that they are not spiritual at all. But what if ‘curiosity’ replaced ‘spirituality’? How would one approach the world?”

I wish my mother was there to see it.
