Was David optimistic when he slain Goliath? The story says everyone was afraid. What role does optimism play in stories of triumph and in our lives. In uncertain times our theologian James Luther Adams calls for 'Ultimate Optimism.' Let's look at that more closely. This sermon is part of our Foundations series – inspired by John Luther Adams' essay "Guiding Principles of a Free Faith," in which he writes about the five smooth stones of liberal religion. We use these ideas throughout our Faith Forward offerings and religious education. First Unitarian Church of Dallas is devoted to genuine inclusion, depth and joy, reason and spirit. We have been a voice of progressive religion in Dallas since 1899, working toward a more just and compassionate world in all of what we do. We hope that when you come here your life is made more whole through experiences of love and service, spiritual growth, and an open exploration of the divine.
