Adult Forum

The adult forum meets every Sunday morning from 10 – 11 AM in the Gil Alexander room and offers a variety of programs which generally follow a presentation, live or video (think T.E.D. talks or Great Course Series) followed by a discussion.  The Forum selects their own topics.  The information is interesting, timely and the conversations are always lively.

People may also join us on Zoom. The Zoom link information is on the Home page and is the same Zoom ID that we use to live stream our morning services.

Adult Forum – Emerson, Thoreau, & the Transcendentalist Movement – A Great Courses Series

Jan 04, 2026

  • Adult Forum
Without Emerson and Thoreau (both were Unitarians) the United States would not have developed into the nation it has become. We would not believe in the power of the individual to the extent that we do, nor would we see nature at the center of one view of the American psyche. If Emerson gave us a new view of America and American thinking, Thoreau gave us a new way of living and a new vision of each individual. This course has 4 DVDs with a total of 24 talks. We will start this series of classes on January 4th 2026. This course, taught by Professor Ashton Nichols Ph.D. of the University of Virginia, explores the philosophical and literary movement of American Transcendentalism through the lives [...]
