11:00AM Worship Service: Us vs. Them, Roddy Biggs
What good does it do “Us” to cast judgment on others, to point fingers, and to make claims to be better than someone else or another? What do we even gain out of doing so? Do we even gain anything at all? Why is it that we feel the need even to do it in the first place? Can’t we all get along? Join us in beloved community as we work to understand "Us" Vs "Them" mentality and the toxic culture it creates.
Roddy Biggs is an East Tennessee native, and a member of both Tennessee Valley UU, in Knoxville TN. and at First UUChurch of Nashville where he is worship associate, a lay leader and co-chair for the Social Justice Committee. He is a student at Middle Tennessee State University working on a bachelor degree before heading off to Seminary to pursue UU ministry. As part of his studying and pre-seminary work, they are working on and giving sermons through various church's pulpit supply programs and are grateful for the opportunities to do so.
