A Sunday Afternoon Discussion in Oakton

Reclaiming Prophetic Witness: Liberal Religion in the Public Square

Come join the discussion on the work, Reclaiming Prophetic Witness: Liberal Religion in the Public Square, on Sunday, May 17, 2015 at 12:30pm in the Sanctuary at the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Fairfax, 2709 Hunter Mill Road, Oakton, VA. The lead discussant will be Reverend Julie Price.

Written by leading Unitarian Universalist theologian Paul Rasor, Reclaiming Prophetic Witness: Liberal Religion in the Public Square dispels the myth that conservative Christianity is the only valid religious voice in the national debates on social policy. Showing that religious liberals are more numerous than many realize, he calls on them to embrace their prophetic heritage and bring their religious convictions to bear on the issues of our time. Reclaiming Prophetic Witness will lift your spirit, while inspiring you to lift your voice and reclaim a place in the public square.

Reverend Julie Price is UUCF’s Ministerial Intern for 2014-2015 and has focused much of her work this year in the area of social justice. Rev. Price received a Bachelor of Music degree from the University of Richmond in Richmond, VA and a Master of Divinity Degree from Candler School of Theology at Emory University in Atlanta, GA. She was ordained and served as a liberal Christian minister in Virginia, Texas, and Georgia before becoming a Unitarian Universalist. Julie studies congregational and family systems at the Center for Family Process in Bethesda, MD and is enjoying immersing herself in all things Unitarian Universalist as she completes the preparation necessary to fellowship as a Unitarian Universalist minister.
