Wrestling Naked and Sweaty - Rev. Ruth Van Lillian - Sunday, July 29, 2018

8/11/2018

0 Comments

 
Ever wish you could get your hands on God (you know, if there was one)?  Don't you have questions? and complaints? and outrage?  Wouldn't you like to hold God fast and close and demand an explanation?  The Hebrew anti-hero, Jacob, can tell a little bit about that, and how to usefully wrestle with our own faith questions.
Rev. Ruth Vann Lillian serves as both the contract minister at the UU Congregation of Tuscaloosa and the Interim Director of Religious Education at the UUC of Birmingham, both in Alabama.  She is also a Compensation Consultant for the Office of Church Staff Finance.  She is a graduate of Birmingham-Southern College, and holds a M. A. Ed. in counseling from the University of Alabama at Birmingham, and a M. Div. from the Iliff School of Theology.  She & her husband, Bill Malone, have two teen-aged boys & one cat.  She is the daughter of Civil Rights Movement mediating attorney, David J. Vann, who later served as Mayor of Birmingham.  A former United Methodist minister, Ruth has been an active Unitarian Universalist for over 13 years.
