In his sermon "The Name of Love," Rev. T. J. FitzGerald reflects on on Martin Luther King Jr.'s message for us in troubled times. Drawing from Dr. King’s teachings on agape love, nonviolence, and moral courage, this UU sermon explores what it means to live with purpose when fear, injustice, and division feel overwhelming. It looks honestly at the tension between love and resistance and why Dr. King believed real love always carries a cost. T he Rev. T. J. FitzGerald is one of the ministers at First Unitarian Church of Dallas. Download the Morning Program

If you’re looking for a way to start the year that feels deeper than a typical resolution, join us this Sunday. We’re hosting a heartfelt service that blends music and words with a beautiful, symbolic ritual. Together, we’ll move through a circle of light and water, practicing the art of letting go, the joy of starting fresh, and our connection to the earth.
