Below you will find the titles and links to a whole list of articles
that have been submitted to guestsermon@ulcseminary.org
and we thought you’d perhaps enjoy.The views expressed in
these writings belong solely to the authors, but as ULC ministers, we know you value the different viewpoints of others and can use them as a starting point for meaningful discussions.
While we recognize that Pagans don't have sermons in the traditional sense, we also recognize that Pagans have a lot to say. If you have a viewpoint that you'd like to share, please do. We try and get them up for viewing as soon as possible.
Spiritual Sermons - This section has a lot of spiritual sermons and writings, as well as an option to have different ones mailed to you weekly for free. As part of it, there is a free spiritual growth series that many have found to be of great use to them. They are free to read and sign up for.
Absolution of Sins - If you believe in confession and being absolved of your sins, there is a video on this page, as well as information on how you can do this. The form on the page is private and for your use. Even if it's not part of your belief system, there is something freeing about letting something out into the Universe and releasing your burden.
Sunday School - This section is primarily Christian-related, since I don't know that Pagans have any sort of Sunday school, but you are welcome to look through this and see if there are lessons that may be of interest. You can also sign up to have some emailed to you every week.
Starting A Church - In this section, you can learn to start a church of any type, using the ULC name or a name of your choice. There are many sections that you can go to which will have samples of the various types of forms required to start a church of your own. You can use these pages as templates to get your own information together.
FAQs - The ULC Seminary has an extensive collection of Frequently Asked Questions, both about our church and about a variety of other religions. These have been submitted by ministers of those faiths, so if you would like to submit some or see things you'd like corrected, please let me know.
FORUM - The ULC has an active forum where students can post their lesson work or discuss their classes, as well as just engage in disucssions with other ministers. It's free to sign up for and you can find topics of all types listed here. Please join us to talk and debate (politely) with other ministers.
If you have a sermon you’d like to
submit to appear in the Guest Sermon section, please send it in
the body of the e-mail toguestsermon@ulcseminary.org.
Today your positive email came at the most extraordinary moment when it feels like I have reach a crucial point on my spiritual path. All the lessons I have been studying prepared me for this moment in my life, I feel like and having the tools from Spirit Quest is a huge soulful blessing.
The lessons provided are very life changing when one decides to apply them to their entire life a well as outlook. I feel like I have reached a true awakening! It is so wonderfully amazing. I am blessed that I found ULC.
I found this to be true as a child and have used it all my life. Our own expectations create a vibratory rate around us (our aura) and it is perceived by those around us through their third eye. There is more to it than just that but it is wonderful to explore and understand what God has pre-programmed in the human being.
A child was asked to write a book report on the entire Bible. Here is what was written:
The Children's Bible in A Nutshell
In the beginning, which occurred near the start, there wasnothing but God, darkness, and some gas.
The Bible says,'The Lord thy God is one,' but I think He must be a lot older than that.
Anyway, God said, 'Give me a light!' and someone did.
Then God made the world.
He split the Adam and made Eve. Adam and Eve were naked,but they weren't embarrassed because mirrors hadn't beeninvented yet.
Adam and Eve disobeyed God by eating one bad apple, so they were driven from the Garden of Eden.....Not sure what they were driven in though, because they didn't have cars.
Adam and Eve had a son, Cain, who hated his brother as longas he was Abel.
Pretty soon all of the early people diedoff, except for Methuselah, who lived to be like a million or something.
One of the next important people was Noah, who was a good guy,but one of his kids was kind of a Ham. Noah built alarge boat and put his family and some animals on it. He askedsome other people to join him, but they said they wouldhave to take a rain check.
After Noah came Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Jacob was morefamous than his brother, Esau, because Esau sold Jacob hisbirthmark in exchange for some pot roast. Jacob had a sonnamed Joseph who wore a really loud sports coat.
Another important Bible guy is Moses, whose real name wasCharlton Heston. Moses led the Israel Lights out of Egyptand away from the evil Pharaoh after God sent ten plagues onPharaoh's people. These plagues included frogs, mice, lice,bowels, and no cable. God fed the Israel Lights every daywith manicotti. Then he gave them His Top Ten Commandments. These include: don't lie, cheat, smoke, dance, or covet yourneighbor's stuff. Oh, yeah, I just thought of one more:Humor thy father and thy mother.
One of Moses' best helpers was Joshua who was the firstBible guy to use spies. Joshua fought the battle of Geritol andthe fence fell over on the town.
After Joshua came David.. He got to be king by killing agiant with a slingshot. He had a son named Solomon who hadabout 300 wives and 500 porcupines. My teacher says he was wise,but that doesn't sound very wise to me.
After Solomon there were a bunch of major league prophets. One of these was Jonah, who was swallowed by a big whale and thenbarfed up on the shore.
There were also some minor leagueprophets, but I guess we don't have to worry about them.
After the Old Testament came the New Testament. Jesus is thestar of The New Testament. He was born in Bethlehem in a barn.(I wish I had been born in a barn too, because my mom is always saying to me, 'Close the door! Were you born in a barn?' It wouldbe nice to say, 'As a matter of fact, I was.')
During His life, Jesus had many arguments with sinners likethe Pharisees and the Republicans.
Jesus also had twelve opossums. The worst one was Judas Asparagus. Judas was so evil that theynamed a terrible vegetable after him.
Jesus was a great man. He healed many leopards and evenpreached to some Germans on the Mount.
But the Republicans and all those guys put Jesus on trial before Pontius the Pilot. Pilot didn't stick up for Jesus. He just washed his hands instead.
Anyways, Jesus died for our sins, then came back to life again. He went up to Heaven but will be back at the end of theAluminum. His return is foretold in the book of Revolution.
(I think this was too funny to be written by a child, but puns are good for the soul.)

The ULC, run by Rev. Long, has created a chaplaincy program to help train our ministers. We also have a huge catalog of minister supplies. I've been ordained with the Universal Life Church for many years and am proud to have started the Seminary.
