The sermons listed here are primarily Christian in their origins. We look forward to reading your sermons here as well and hope to see the concepts talked about between yourselves on the ULC forum.

KEYS OF THE KINGDOMBy Dee Burgess(Copyright 2005)There are billions of text books written on the subject of 'spiritual enlightenment' butunlike temporal pursuits, this is a not a craft which can be passed on, one to another, likewoodworking techniques; it must be sought and revealed through the Spirit of God. Thisspiritual knowledge is often considered *hidden knowledge*. I qualify 'hidden' knowle

Pride: The Pitfall of PreachersWe strive for excellence in preaching, and we should--but there are dangers if we succeed.Did you see the opening battle scene in Saving Private Ryan? Imagine the most frightening and dangerous terrain from any war movie. What if pride is the threat and preaching is the mission? Uh-oh, it looks dangerous: 1. Preaching involves speaking to others a

It seems every Christmas story has to have a Scrooge, from Hallmark dramas to children's books. The reason we always write a jerk into our holiday stories is because it's true. In real life there's always a jerk. Today, I want to encourage you not to be a Christmas jerk. Don't be the Scrooge. It's all too easy. Maybe you're expecting an Xbox and you get a sweater. Maybe you're parents ha

Jesus Was Tempted TooOnline SermonToday's Scripture"We have a great high priest, who has gone into heaven, and he is Jesus the Son of God. That is why we must hold on to what we have said about him. Jesus understands every weakness of ours, because he was tempted in every way that we are. But he did not sin! So whenever we are in need, we should come bravely before the throne of our merciful

ThoughtThe word for the day is thought. Recently I uploaded the Home Course in Mental Science to my websiteWisaac3rd.com in installments of a chapter every day or two so it took me probably a month to upload all twenty chapters plus the study guide. This is a very challenging course as far as study content. It will make one think if their mind is open to any extent at all.T

Universal Life Church I became ordained because there was something inside of me that said I should help other people realize their spiritualism without the confines of being associated with an organized religion. Tolerance for all beliefs is the key to true peace and spiritualism may come in many forms. Doing that which is right is an excellent motto to live by for anyone and I do my best

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.
