What do Burmese Buddhism, pagan traditions, nature and Unitarian Universalism have in common? Thida Cornes explores the human search for transcendence through sacred spaces, the natural world, and moments of connection that invite us beyond ourselves. From temple courtyards to towering trees, this sermon considers how different traditions help us encounter wonder, meaning, and the sacred.
Worship leader: Thida Cornes
