Sermons at Pearl seek to engage the ancient stories, poems, and letters in the Bible through imaginative oration that rouses our wholeness as human beings. The act of the sermon at Pearl is space to ponder the sacred, opportunity to consider the mystery and love of God, and provocation to slow down, to think deeply, and to be stirred and inspired to bountifully live.
In 2023, Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy issued a statement declaring a new epidemic—not a new strain of COVID or the flu, but rather loneliness. In this sermon, our aim is to normalize our experiences of loneliness and to explore how we as a community can respond to the epidemic of loneliness and provide a place for connection and belonging to flourish.
